A sharp touch, a wounded heart: Reflections on emotions and art

“Your thorns are sharp, and you care little for my pain,” someone once said. Have you ever felt that prickle within, a vulnerability that both protects and hurts? Like a rose, both beauty and danger intertwined.

Has your own passion ever left you feeling scorched, consumed, perhaps even ground down? Do you understand the sting of such emotions, the yearning to simply disappear within another’s embrace?

Has your world ever felt eclipsed, shrouded in darkness where once your light shone? But did the sun rise again, illuminating a path you thought lost forever?

Can you love the entirety of your emotional spectrum, even the thorns and shadows, knowing they are uniquely yours?

If so, you’re not alone. Join me in celebrating the tapestry of human experience through art. Each piece, born from the depths of my own emotions, seeks to connect us through shared vulnerabilities and triumphs.

Immerse yourself in “Common Feelings,” an art exhibition opening February 1st at Cabaret Voltaire Rome. The exhibit runs for a month, offering a space to explore the kaleidoscope of our inner worlds.

Join the opening party on February 1st at 7 pm, and let’s embark on this artistic journey together!
