The person depicted is my aunt, Ersilia. I wanted to go beyond the memory I had of her, an old lady of 90 years. I did fantasies about her life. Of course, when she was a child, she has been the delight of his parents. At 20 he was a very beautiful woman who has tasted love. He had a working life. Then came the period of old age, the decline. These are the normal stages of a normal life. When we see an older person, usually we not think of all this. We are conditioned by his present appearance, we do not think about what they were. Older people bring these experiences within, they are something more than the old shell that we see.

I resume making art after a long period of interruption. I thought I could start from where I left off. To my surprise my work had mutated. It was as if my work had become a tool with which my emotions and memories may emerge - a kind of self-analysis.. It was as if my work had become an instrument with which my emotions and memories could emerge - a sort of auto analysis. The works I produce today have a central theme - time. These works are on memory, separation, life and death, games played when I was a child and the transformation of our bodies over the passing years. Probably, these themes have been stimulated by the actual phase of my life. I am 60 and at an age when you begin to look back on your own experiences, your own past. It is a moment in your life when your dear ones start to die; it is also a moment in your life when the probability of dying increases. As to the aesthetics, my work is characterized by a precise choice attributing importance to all the structural elements typical of a painting - frame, mount, glass and so on. All these elements contribute to the completion of an artwork. My favourite technique is the collage of photographic images taken from family photo albums, or produced specifically for the artwork with relationship to past images.
