Artwork Statement

In "Mermaid", the fusion of bodypaint and negative photography brings to life a unique and evocative representation of the beauty and mystery of the marine world. The work captures the naked torso of a mermaid, submerged in the depths of the ocean, where the contrasts and nuances of the artistic brushstrokes intertwine to create a captivating visual experience. Each stroke of paint not only highlights the form and essence of the figure, but also invites the viewer to explore the connection between humanity and nature. The mermaid, a symbol of seduction and freedom, emerges from the shadows, revealing her vulnerability and strength in an environment that is both magical and real. Through this work, it seeks to provoke a reflection on the duality of life: light and darkness, surface and depths. "Sirena" is a tribute to the beauty that resides in the unknown and the ability of art to transform the ordinary into the extraordinary.
