black soul

All of her work displays signs of a desperate struggle, in a more or less obvious manner. It is as if the character asks how to consider certain truths in the context of the work, knowing they are reduced to a fantastic reality. The expressions suggest a request for help found somewhere between suffering and pure ecstasy. There is a kind of irreducible opposition between the apparent clarity of the painting’s metaphorical and symbolic apparatus, leaving the viewer with a lasting cryptic message.
Vanessa pursued an absolute and eternal pictorial quality, and through excess research it became a source of her values and sentiments. The subject remains tied to the dual aesthetic and symbolic meaning found beneath the hidden archetypes, a process of subtle alchemy that is the base of the artist’s research. Her works are filled with emotional values, focused on biblical symbolism that enhances their intense, original quality. Therefore, each painting must be viewed with great attention and thought to be properly interpreted. Perhaps her own inner battle, in the heat of passion, yields Vanessa’s balance of conflict in all its purity.
