About this artwork

"Onirico" is a work born from the exploration of dreams and deepest emotions. In this composition, I wanted to represent the face of a woman with an intense gaze, capable of transmitting a mysterious and fascinating strength. The abstract colors I chose, from blue to purple and yellow, mix to create a surreal, almost dreamlike atmosphere.

The right eye of the figure is the focal point of the work: a figure emerges from it, as if it were a fragment… of the dreams that escape the mind. This image reminds me a lot of the way Marc Chagall represented his dreams, where reality and imagination merge into a single visual flow. I tried to capture that intensity of emotions and that fluidity between the real and the dreamlike, where every color and shape dissolves and transforms.

"Onirico" is a journey into the unconscious, an invitation to reflect on the border between dream and reality, between what we see and what we feel.

Credentials

Works on commission

Born in Salerno, a city kissed by the sun and the sea, I undertook artistic studies with a particular focus on archaeological restoration. Growing up in a family of artists, I had the privilege of being immersed in the artistic environment from a very young age. In 2005, I moved to Assisi, where I had the opportunity to meet the maestro Elvio Marchionni, expert in the art of materials and in the use of ancient plaster techniques.
Through the representation of female faces, I try to capture the intensity and complexity of human emotions, transforming internal experiences into vibrant shapes and colors. The color palette I use is imbued with vitality and energy, with a range of colors that evoke intense and vivid emotions. Colors become the language with which to express the nuances of the soul, transforming the canvas into an emotional landscape in constant evolution.
