My artistic production comes from observing and exploring emotions and feelings, the invisible and often neglected part of the human being: drives, fears, thoughts, anxieties, joys, trying to elaborate shapes and colors to represent them, being well aware of the difficulty and perhaps the "lucid madness" of such a quest. Likewise, I observe the dynamics of our society and how social relationships shape individuals and the difficulty sometimes of adapting to them. Since I was a child, son of two worlds in some ways antithetical, I seek the symmetry of opposites, as a metaphor for life, the uniqueness proper to each individual, opposed to the widespread unique homogenization model. A great lover of technology whose evolution I’ve been following for more than thirty years, fascinated by the enormous possibilities it offers in the artistic field as well, I prefer, in my artistic production, canvases and colors, the matter. I see in the dominant dematerialization that permeates the homo technologicus life, a dehumanization, the path that will lead man to be dominated by the technology he created. For years, while focusing on abstract painting, I have simultaneously pursued a photographic journey. Unlike the “precision” I seek in geometric art, my photographs are instinctive gestures tied to the moment and the situation. In this field, I “seek out” the imperfection intrinsic to life. I find the contrast between the rigorous forms and geometric patterns of my paintings and the irregularity and unpredictability captured by the lens, fascinating.
