Microscopic View This project began in a dream. In my sleep, I dived into the sea and swam to the bottom, finding many aquatic plants. I could admire the simplicity of the shapes of these beings that are important for all life on planet earth, as 55% of the oxygen on earth is produced by algae. And suddenly I felt that I had a new power of having microscopic eyes. With this new power I could bring my gaze closer and closer like a human microscope and suddenly I was at the cellular level and I could travel through the various colors and shapes that reminded me of spots. So based on this dream I am investigating the accidental stains within the pictorial language. And how do I study this new universe? In this project I present works that were inspired by a dream I had, in which I immediately fell in love with the colors and stains that seem unpredictable, but that awaken my most attentive gaze to such small and fascinating beings. Finally, there is a kind of distrust of beauty. In art, this resistance has been established as a way to prevent our consciousness from becoming alien to itself, away from its real nature. I have always observed the real nature of things, of the objects around me. To me it makes sense and I won't disagree, but I must say that also for me reality is a choice and my choice is for beauty. In my belief there is no true beauty without some strangeness in the same proportion.

My work as a visual artist presents my fascination with objects, colors, and the chemical mixtures we can obtain with various types of materials. I fell in love with the abstract in my childhood, given my upbringing with my father. I never felt trapped and/or obliged to respect colors or stereotyped shapes. At first it was a game in my father's studio, which became my lifelong pursuit. I did not have a traumatic childhood, on the contrary, mine was inspiring and became my compass! I have always observed the real nature of things, of the objects around me. And so I have always sought new ways of doing things. In my artistic practices I seek to present reflections and tests obtained from the abstractions of nature around me and within me.
