Valeria Pianese

Valeria Pianese, who signs her works with the pseudonym “Berry,” is a Neapolitan artist living in Zurich whose visual research explores the relationship between color, emotion, symbolism, and consciousness as the primary means to peer into the depths of the human soul.
Influenced by Mediterranean European culture and literature and by an interest in behavioral psychology, Valeria conceives art not only as a tool for investigating experience and reality, but also as an inner transformation and a process of ongoing research.
His technique is characterized by an experimental and intuitive approach that combines chromatic layering and active painting, creating material surfaces and compositions vibrant with energy between abstraction and emotion.
His works therefore move in a liminal space between sensory perception and philosophical reflection, inviting the viewer to question the way images influence the way we feel and understand the world.
