Amicale

The further we go, the better we see ourselves, is a thought that occurred to me after a trip to another continent.

New landscapes, smells, people, colours, cities are a challenge for our curiosity, an opportunity to expand our horizons and a good way to enrich our personality.

The direct contact with nature, the respect and admiration I feel for it, led me to make pictures from my sketches, my photos and from my mental notes, and thus once again, through the painting canvas, renew the experience of the places I have been and that left an impression on me.

No matter how clear the memories were in the beginning, forgetting, with the help of time, makes them blurred, and this exhibition is my way to oppose it.

With this exhibition, I also want to remind all of us, in what way and how beautiful nature is and kind to us, but not inexhaustible. We need to be aware of that and reciprocate with attention and concern for its preservation.

The exhibition consists of 30 works created in the last two years, executed using the oil on canvas technique.
