n With Gratitude and Grease: Goodbye, the artist explores the unsettling convergence of humanity and machine, capturing a powerful narrative of transition—perhaps even extinction. A striking female figure stands divided: one half vibrant and organic in a flowing red dress, golden hair cascading with life; the other cold, metallic, robotic—void of warmth. This duality embodies the tension between past and future, nature and technology, emotion and logic.

The expressive brushwork in the background, with its chaotic blend of blacks, whites, and greys, echoes the confusion and rapid pace of societal evolution. The human half of the figure begins to dissolve into abstraction, while the robot emerges, fully formed and seemingly indifferent.

Thematically, this painting speaks to the philosophical question of what is lost—and what is gained—when machines inherit our place. The title, both thankful and final, serves as a eulogy to the human era: “With Gratitude and Grease: Goodbye.”

Style & Technique:
Executed in bold, textural acrylics, the painting leans into Expressionism and Futurism, with stylistic echoes of artists like Egon Schiele in the anatomical emphasis and raw emotion, and Franz Marc or Umberto Boccioni in the dynamism and abstraction of form. The contrast of warm, living tones with stark mechanical greys heightens the emotional divide.

I've been drawing all my life, primarily using pencil. In 2019, I began experimenting with digital art, and in 2020, after moving to Rome, I started working with acrylic and oil paints.
My paintings are a direct reflection of my mood, expressing the emotions and thoughts I experience while creating. Through my art, I aim to engage the viewer, encouraging them to form their own unique interpretation, connecting abstract forms to their personal feelings, memories, and thoughts. This is why most of my works are abstract or semi-abstract—allowing each person to shape the image into something meaningful to them.
