Oil on Canvas
29.5 × 25.6 in; 75 × 65 cm

"My pieces are oil paintings, technically done in the most traditional way. I work by copying fragments of feminine portraits, preferably from the XIX century.

I try to express a universal ideal of art where the novelty is not more important than tradition. “Fake Abstract” is a subtle and ironic critique of contemporary art."
