Sandra Chinelate, born in Brazil, lives in Italy and works on the physical and existential investigation conducted with the tools of figurative painting. Trained in humanities, and as a child a self-taught artist, she moves to Italy and, influenced by her multifaceted sociolinguistic gaze, conducts her painting research with the aim of promoting an encounter between the different social subjects, where different ages, skin colors, passions and human misgivings are contemplated starting from a strong desire on the part of the artist to exalt their facets, safeguarding her characters from any prejudice. Since 2006 she has exhibited in solo and group shows. She works with oil and mixed media on canvas and wood panel.
