Artist Statement

We are not perfect, our relationships are not perfect, our bodies are not perfect, so many aspects of our life are not.

So what drives us to move forward, what drives us to get out of bed every day? What drives us to still believe in love? What drives us to work hard to achieve our dreams? The emotions! The desire to feel alive.

It doesn’t matter if we ever reach what we consider to be perfect, we don’t give up because the path makes us feel alive, it makes us feel emotions. It is with this exact point of view that I approach my art and my creativity. My paintings are not realistic, they are not perfect and they don’t want to be. My paintings are the representation of emotions on canvas.

Skills and Techniques

Chiara Magni is the creator of a unique style she named "Bright Expressionism."

This style serves as a meeting point between impressionism and expressionism. She masterfully uses oil paint, generously applying it to the canvas, and sometimes she experiments with other unconventional mediums. Her paintings are bold and colorful, ranging from figurative to abstract. The key element of Bright Expressionism is creating strong emotions and making you fall in love with the textured oil.

Chiara doesn't place any limitations on her art and creativity. She paints with a spatula, her fingers, and even fabric, rarely using brushes. She is always searching for a better way to convey even more emotion and enhance the environment of her collectors."
