Chapter III

My relationship with the human form is deeply rooted in my passion for dance and the rhythm of movement. I naturally gravitas toward inks rather than watercolors; I love their definition, their unapologetic strength, and the fact that they never lose their intensity on the paper.

Through fluid yet structured lines, I explore how the body interacts with the canvas. I love to challenge the space, sometimes filling it completely—drawing inspiration from Mannerist and classical masters like El Greco—where the tension of the curves and the density of the figures transform the painting into a vibrant, emotional territory.
