"My Stuff" series is our choices, our trends, our things, as responses to identity and individuality and the last. Graffiti, Comic book, Pop art, Poster art, stencil art. The education supported by the cultural fabric expressed in it, as a dynamic factor of a globalized society in consumption and in the visual elements of communication, make up the structure of composition and expression of my paintings. They are the objects that represent us, identify us, approach us and also distance us by trends or tastes.
My painting work has been carried out over the years, as a path through cultures, always focusing on the anthropological issue. My paintings have mini clippings from several worlds, which inhabit my contemporary world, bringing internal stories, which are formed in language, a line of events of pictorial people, who walk between their objects and narrate a trajectory of images that merge into one magma personal. Since 2018 I developed four series "Showcases of Rock "- "My Stuff"- Covid 19 – “The Submerged”, where I seek the identity of a culture that changed the structure of a society. The use of technology, representative symbols of music, fashion; as a dynamic factor of a globalized society and structured in consumption and image. Was inspired by store windows selling t-shirts, buttons, skateboards. Syncretizing with the iconoclastic image of the music, band logos, and our fascination to record images incessantly with our cell phones and machines groups of young people in search of identity, using these cultural devices and personal appreciation.
