About this artwork
Poker Face (Calling Ghostbusters) is a work born from a reflection on the phenomenon of ghosting, that sudden and silent disappearance that happens more and more frequently in human relationships.
I started with a pre-existing portrait, which, even in its original title—Poker Face—suggested a restrained, impenetrable emotion. I decided to rework that figure with a series of hand-painted pop elements, inspired by the visual universe of Ghostbusters,… as if they were vintage stickers applied over time.
The apparent irony hides a deeper message: "ghosts" aren't just those in movies, but also those we leave behind, or those that haunt us when someone disappears without explanation. The covered eyes in the portrait speak of a lack of contact, of emotional detachment.
Every detail is carefully drawn, to maintain a direct connection with the surface and with the story I tell.

« Through my gesture, I pursue the harmony that connects the inner with the universal. »
“Through my sign, I chase the harmony that unites the interior to the universal.”
Carolina Polara is an emerging artist born in Florence in 1986, she expresses herself through oil painting and mixed media, with a style that blends realism and abstraction. In her works, the pictorial gesture becomes an emotional story: bodies, skies and animals intertwine in a continuous search for inner freedom.
His works are born from an intimate and reflective urgency: he loves to paint creatures in which he emotionally recognizes himself, mirrors of moods that become silent symbols of a personal and visionary world.
Lives and works in Viareggio.
