I am convinced that digital media has absolute relevance in contemporary practices of expression and representation; digital photography, illustration, video and digital audio tools are familiar to the viewer/listener. In my work I try to find new keys for visual representation in order to adapt plastic practices to new media aesthetics.

 

I create a bridge between realistic painting and digital media through the use of several elements of digital media aesthetics: pixel, glitch, blurriness, misframing, lighting flaws and different color palettes, recently I started to use digital devices as canvases to invite viewers to project their own experiences and knowledges through the familiarity of these objects.
