Original artwork description:

Artwork with warm but strident colors, in which I wanted to capture the poignant intensity of the human soul between pain and strength: it is inspired by the episode in which Saint Catherine of Siena, suffering the aggression of the Evil One, struggles in the throes of spasms between screams and diabolical hands. But her will, strengthened by grace, never ceased to resist this assault. The accentuated forms conceived in the work express the emotional tension that creates the dramatic energy released by the inner struggle between light and shadow, giving the environment a powerful and evocative aura, capable of shaking and enveloping the observer with deep passion.

Materials used:

Oil colors on canvas
