Transported by Venetian techniques developed by Titian and Rembrandt, creates paintings with disturbing plastic precision, blending beauty and grotesque in a strikingly photographic manner. Inspired by surrealism and the spiritual teachings of Carl Jung, the artist explores the internal transformations of body and mind through an alchemical visual language. His paintings show how experiences of change can be felt physically, transforming the body into a host for these metamorphoses.
