Artworks by Elisa Bertesago

Art has always been my way of transforming my fascination with nature into something tangible. As a biologist, I am inspired by the patterns and colours found in the natural world, from microscopic cellular forms to minerals, forests and oceans. Through acrylic pouring, I found a language that reflects nature itself, embracing the unpredictability of fluid materials. What drives me to create is the desire to capture the emotions that nature evokes in me: wonder, energy, serenity and connection. I translate these sensations into unique abstract landscapes. I love that every painting is unrepeatable: the interaction of colours creates organic forms and details that can never be reproduced exactly.
I am a self-taught artist and I continuously develop my practice through the exploration of new techniques and commissioned works. Over the past few years, my work has been presented in group exhibitions in Rome, Milan and Genoa, experiences that have encouraged me to further develop my artistic identity and share my work with a wider audience. For me, selling a painting means finding a new home for a unique piece of my creative journey and, hopefully, creating an emotional connection with the person who chooses it.
