I try with a sense of humour and sweetness and intensity to approach the world of children, which is radically different and depending on the society and the conditions in which they live.
A child who grows up with the technological and material comforts a Western Society does not have the same concerns or the same dreams as a child who grows up in the third world. Not all children are facing the same problems nor perceive happiness in the same way. But all are entitled to enjoy it and live decently.
I am using mixed techniques and I'm looking for the most suitable material to express the idea. In any case not to customise the idea in the hardware.
In my last work, mainly collage and vivid colours are used in order to express, with sweetness and humour, the often difficult situations experienced by children.
I'm also using drawing with charcoal to canvas and some touches of acrylic colours. With my decision to use black – white – red, I do not wish to simply stretch the drama and intensity of the forms but to address the danger of the apathy and indifference towards children and their problems.
