Artist Statement

What we see through the fog or the speed of motion of life , is not what it is, but what it could be. An ‘Indefinite’, that has an answer in the imagination of the watcher, an unconscious reflection. My artistic research starts in this intangible relationship between reality and my inner world.

The evanescence of impressions is expressed in the sensitive delicacy of my blurred and dreamlike atmospheres; the shades of my landscapes are the memory of elusive emotions.

By living, we collect memories and suggestions; I'm permeated by the illusion of being able to crystallise them in my paintings. While I paint, I enter into an emotional silence where only the colour and I exist. And in which I can take something out of my soul to place on the canvas. What I do, finally, is to blend the external world with my inner emotional self. The feeling that remains to me, after painting, is freedom.

About the artist

Chanel Durante

Chanel comes from a region in Northern Italy close to Venice, a scenic area near forests, mountains and sea where the atmosphere is often thick with fog and mist. Chanel is a self-taught Italian painter and began by working with water colours and acrylics, but now prefers to work with oil paints on a smaller intimate scale. Currently living and painting in Italy, she has participated in various exhibitions and biennials in Italy and abroad.

She is an empathetic and intuitive artist who paints the nostalgic moment of an emotional experience. "I live out fragments of memories that have crystallised into the landscapes of my life."

And it is precisely those landscapes that she tries to capture, making them transcend and render them evocative, undefined and intangible so that they can gather, in their vaporousness, the transfiguration of an emotion, a feeling, a regret.. of the bittersweet poetry of life.
