DEAD NATURE

40,50cm X32,50cm

Mainly Acrylic on canvas

Mixed technique

This is a sarcastic title representing my political argument about what is happening in the world: the massive manipulation of the Earth and this constant battle between money and the nature. We do not need to destroy the planet in the name of profit. A time may come when Mother Earth decides to bite back.

DMZ (DE MILITARIZED ZONE)

59,50cm X 39,50cm

Acrylic on canvas.

Life is like barbed wire. The only way out is through keeping your heart open and holding on to love. This is what I pictured when I saw my shadow in the demilitarized zone in Korea.

WAITING

2 canvas 40,5x24cm

Acrylic on canvas

Made on the same kind of canvas, with the same media, from the same hands, they are only separated by sight. But they are one of a kind, waiting for each other to be together, just like a love story.

FIRE

53x65 cm

Acrylic on canvas

I see this pattern since I was fourteen. It represents  the passion for life in connection to the soul.

THE PRAYER

73cm x 60,50 cm

Acrylic on canvas

A Tibetan woman on the way to the temple praying  in the traditional way; her smile, her hair, the position of her hands, everything about her reminds us how strong life is, how beautiful it is to live without fear of death. Look at the strength of her prayer, fighting against the odds, the negativity of life… and winning! This is what is in her face: victory!

THE MONK

22x27 cm

Acrylic on wood

THOUGHTS

68x70cm

Acrylic on canvas hanging in the frame

This is a pattern I have seen since I was very young, I just wanted to express it.

4 little canvases mounted on purpose in the middle of the frame because they must flow in the space. This painting is designed to hang in a big window to represent life hanging on invisible delicate lines connecting the human being with the universe, including both the spiritual and the material world.

ROSES AT TEMPLE

(The spirit of the offer)

81x52 1/2 x7cm

Acrylic on canvas

Chiffon,velvet, tulle

Flowers hand made and hand sewn on canvas.

I wanted to give to this floral offering a sense of infinity and everlasting life. Therefore, I recreated the flowers not by painting them but by rebuilding them from different materials, as if real, letting them live forever. This frame has been deliberately constructing without glass to represent our eternal offering to life and the environment we live in.
