weeping willow Painting

I am a Berlin based artist and have been working for the past 20 years on developing an expressive visual language through painting, drawing, collage, and sculpture. Raised in a small town, on an inactive volcano in Tuscany, I grew up in close connection to nature, and from my experience of nature, takes birth my work. As I believe that what exists in its natural state, is much more beautiful, touching and interesting than any comparable simulacrum, my work itself, does not intend to reproduce nature, but materialize the impression nature leaves with me. My work is the reflective output of natural sensorial input: sound, scent, vision, and feeling, translated onto the canvas as a new mixed form. Driven by an impulsive urge toward expression, my works are rarely conceived before their physical realization. The process itself is a dialogue; each imprint interacts with the previous, and therefore, is an unpredictable play, that may or may not call for multiple medias and techniques within the same piece. My paintings can be found in various collections in North America and Europe:  U.S.A., Canada, France, England, Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg, Italy. I live and work in Berlin since 2008.
