Artist Statement:
CLAUDIA FERRARI
“No comienzo casi nunca con
una visión precisa. Comienzo
con una idea pictórica que
procede en general de mi mundo
interior. Quizás, algunas
veces, la imagen proceda de un
hecho lejano de mi
inconsciente, como en un
sueño”
R. Motherwell
“Es preciso que la idea de
todas las cosas ya esté
acabada en el corazón del
artista, para que la ejecución
del cuadro que realiza
espontáneamente, lo
diluido-concentrado, lo
claro-oscuro, lo suave-fuerte,
lo virtual-lo manifestado,
esté animado por la corriente
vital que anima el universo.”
Wang Yun
A través del paisaje, de las
distintas formas que se nos
presenta en la Naturaleza,
intento captar ese instante de
iluminación, ese estado súbito
de conciencia (satori) donde
lo comprendemos todo y, a la
vez, nos maravillamos con ese
milagro inasible que es la
vida y de la que poco y nada
sabemos.
Busco ese momento en que la
luz, las ramas, una hoja, un
tronco nos cuenta la historia.

| Biggest Artistic Inspiration |
All japanese art from old masters. The use of yin-yang energies, the use of the void. To say everything with two strokes. Transaparency in color. Emotion rather than technique. |

CURRICULUM VITAE
Claudia Ferrari was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 1961. In her life she has two great passions: languages and painting. She gets a degree as a literary, scientific and technical translator of English and French while she studies painting at MEEBA. While doing her post-degrees studies at the Sorbonne University in Paris, she had the opportunity of getting in touch with local artists. In her search for getting to know new cultures, she studies Japanese and its ideograms for ten years. She then discovers her inner world through Sumi-é, an antique Japanese technique using natural dyes on rice paper. Together with her Teacher Kazu Takeda she turns into the Oriental world where she recreates her occidental being through the techniques of colour Sumi-é. Her teachers were I.Merellano, N.Pagano, E.Audivert and Juan Doffo. In Contemporary and Modern Art, F.Barreda.
