Faccia brutta. June 20, 21, 27,and 28. You are invited to challenge conventional notions of beauty.

Welcome to "Faccia Brutta"!

I'm thrilled to open the doors to my exhibition here at Galleri Elfva on June 21, 22, 28, and 29.

In "Faccia Brutta"—meaning "ugly face" in Italian—I invite you to challenge conventional notions of beauty. This series delves into the raw, unpolished facets of human expression, where abstract faces emerge from a symphony of powerful, vibrant colors. Each stroke of vinyl and acrylic paint on canvas and paper is a testament to the myriad emotions that color our inner landscapes.

To create even more profound narratives, I weave in textures and playful doodles. These layers add a tactile dimension and hidden stories, inviting you to look closer and discover new meanings within each piece. These aren't faces you'd find in a polished portrait; rather, they are echoes of fleeting moods, untold stories, and the beautiful imperfections that make us uniquely ourselves. My hope is that these works will spark a dialogue within you, inviting you to see beauty in the unconventional and find resonance in the unexpected harmonies of form and hue.

I genuinely look forward to sharing this intimate exploration with you and engaging in conversations about the art.

A heartfelt welcome awaits you!
