The Hold

I'm a Florence based artist. I try, through soft shapes and intense colours, to represent the sensation of separation and union with love. What did love mean when I was a child, when I didn't have any sort of influence from the outside world? What does it mean now? I see love everywhere, and everywhere it's taken away from me. Even tho I'm not religious at all, I've always been pretty close to it and found fascinating the symbolism behind the Christian world, and the eastern religions, too. I try to mix those allegories with scenes of everyday life, so that I can recreate that feeling of mysticism and light hearted, representative of the state of strong affection and love.
