Eline

São Paulo, Brasil, 1986

My artistic production comes from a search for meaning in life. This meaning I sought in other areas, as religion for example, but it was in art that I found signification and affirmation as a way to overcome the absurdity of life.

As a portrait of my own conflicts, I represent in my work feminine figures with expressions and symbols that attempt to articulate these toughts. From this emerge these noises on the paintings and the choice for cold colors, giving, most of the time, a melancolic aura.

About the technic, I use oil on canvas that I prepare myself from 100% cotton canvas. I prefer to use AA formats and frame them with a glass protection.
