A small hand-stretched abstract painting made of acrylics, oil sticks and soft pastels on sheer fabric and satin. “Embraced Shadow” is inspired by Primary Jungian Archetypes and, through material interplay and transparency, it tries to capture the essence of accepting and integrating our shadow - fears, insecurities, perceived weaknesses - rather than repressing or denying it.

As a multidisciplinary artist and documentary filmmaker, I’ve always been attracted to the inner landscapes of human beings, exploring themes of cultural hybridity, psychology, and spirituality. Having lived among complex and conflictual worlds, my work reflects diverse cultural influences and a personal exploration of identity, belonging and freedom. My paintings are characterised by bold and vibrant colour choices, employing multiple media and materials, like the diverse fabrics of societies I inhabit. As a result of this identity tapestry, I became interested in the transcendental, and how we can arrive from the material to the immaterial, where perhaps we can find more things in common than the conflictual realities we live in.
