Bright Expressionism

ORIGINS OF A MOVEMENT

Bright Expressionism, as envisioned by Chiara, is an artistic revolution that intertwines the intensity of human emotions with an innovative approach to texture and depth. Chiara has always been captivated by the challenge of expressing emotions through more than just color, but through the tangible texture of the paint itself.

In this blend of Impressionism and Expressionism, Chiara doesn't just paint; she brings emotions to life on canvas. The delicate interplay of light and color from Impressionism, mixed with the unfiltered emotional expression of Expressionism, paved the way for Bright Expressionism. Yet, Chiara aimed for something deeper—a style that could traverse the entire emotional spectrum, from the deepest sorrows to the highest joys.

"Bright Expressionism is a celebration of both darkness and light on canvas"

At the end of 2023, Chiara's artistic journey took a turn. She realized that texture isn't just about putting paint on canvas, but also about taking it off. She started using an array of unique tools such as her fingers, spatulas, fabric, wooden sticks, Q-tips, brushes and more. These tools allowed her to experiment with oil paint in new ways, both when it was fresh and when it was semi-dry. By doing this, she revealed hidden layers of color, adding a fresh sense of depth and a three-dimensional feel to her work. This technique, unique to Chiara, allows her to create a dynamic interplay of color and texture, pushing the boundaries of Bright Expressionism.

Bright Expressionism is much more than just an art style. It's a reflection of Chiara's endless creativity and her journey in art. Every painting tells a story, beginning with deep, thoughtful moments and blossoming into a world of bright and beautiful colors. The darker shades are essential; they lay the foundation for a story that transforms right before your eyes. Chiara’s art takes you through all kinds of emotions, ending in a place that feels warm and full of light.

Chiara's approach to Bright Expressionism respects traditional color rules but adds her own twist, creating striking contrasts and a powerful mix of emotions on the canvas. Her art is all about the strength and adaptability of the human spirit, moving from dark moments to hopeful ones. Chiara is changing the game in Impressionism and Expressionism, making Bright Expressionism stand out as a bold and unique style in the art world. This style is more than just a method; it's Chiara's way of showing the beauty in embracing every emotion and transforming it into something extraordinary.
