Italian and Greek national she lives and works in Brussels since 1982. Themes developed: communication, action, purpose, exchange of intentions, people in the street coming and going talking walking searching a goal. Consequently my subjects are always around the person, either as a portrait or in group. Even when the person is not represented I try to give the feeling that it has just gone, or it is about to appear. As if the space was only provisionally empty. Favourite techniques: oil on canvas, etching ink on paper, encaustic on wood. Encaustic is a technique used in ancient Egypt by Greek artists. Beeswax is used as a medium, when molten it allows pigments to be incorporated, with the result of highly preserved and good brilliance of colours.
