"Falena" at the RTIA Art Fair in Reno, Nevada.

Abstract moth-like forms dominate large canvases, one set against a striking red background and the other against a vivid blue. These textured, three-dimensional pieces incorporate layered strips of paint that extend beyond the canvas, —melting, bleeding, unraveling, or dissolving—suggesting themes of time, decay, or emotional release. This work bridges the boundary between painting and sculpture, taking the paint off of the canvas into a 3-D form.

Falena challenges traditional artistic boundaries, creating an energetic and tactile visual dialogue. The interplay of colors, materials, and sculptural elements evokes themes of transformation, duality, and perception, inviting viewers to engage with the pieces from multiple perspectives. The mix of hard and soft, structured and organic, creates a feeling of being alive—almost as if it is in the process of evolving right before your eyes.

The bold composition presents a visually dynamic contrast: a crumpled, organic form emerges from a clean, geometric blue backdrop, challenging the boundaries between chaos and control. The vibrant red, yellow, and black patterns suggest movement, transformation, or even a sense of rebellion against confinement.
