Where I recount the images and colours I take from some of my dreams in this strange period of isolation and domestic confinement. Starting from the position of a body, the memory of an image or a posture or something I have dreamt, I begin to recreate it in the canvas, where I portray myself and look for ways to communicate that idea. The backgrounds are fiery, mellow colours, with weights, textures, stains of dreamscapes that introduce me into a world of my own and the body image ends up small in the corner and all this matter descends on it and crushes it or accompanies it depending on the day. The idea of telling these small dreams or small landscapes in which I am immersed is what helps me to bring out all the instability of the four walls, a slow but important process, a story within a story, a small autobiography of a year of reflection on what painting is and the relationship with my body.

TRANSCULTURAL ARTIST I acquired knowledge at the academy of fine arts, at the university of cinema and in social journalism. I was born in Argentina, where i developed my artistic sensibility until 2016 when i transferred to italy to deepen the technique of baroque and renaissance art. My pictorial search took me to various european countries, asia and north america, traveling, investigating mainly the understanding of behavior, the idea and the inherent being. In 2021 i moved my atelier in Munich, where i work and continue my expressive research.
