Natacha Arena works with the language of abstraction with an interest in the dialogue between suggestion, perception and representation. Arena’s paintings reveal different territories such as melancholy, struggle, fear and joy – they are personal landscapes where colours, forms and movements create intense sensorial experiences. Arena’s process is instinctive, spontaneous and fast, creating “controlled accidents”, where light and depth are crucial components to the composition.
