Elena Colonna | Contemporary Abstract Art

I paint to move myself, and through my paintings, I hope to move others too.

For years, my works hung on the walls of my home, cherished in an intimate, personal space. I painted mainly for myself, for the pleasure of experimenting, expressing myself, and letting myself be surprised by color.

Then, encouraged by some friends, I decided to take part in my first art exhibitions.

Discovering that my paintings could evoke emotions in others too was a wonderful surprise, giving me renewed enthusiasm and the desire to keep creating.

Today, I have decided to free my works from the walls of my home so they can find new spaces, new perspectives, and people who recognize themselves in the emotions I try to convey.

My artistic practice

Descended from a family of artists and painters, I carry with me a creative sensibility that I have cultivated over time through experimentation and the search for a personal expressive language.

I favor Fluid Art, a fluid abstract painting technique that I interpret through variations and experiments developed over the years.

Each painting is born from the interplay of color, material, and movement. Layers of color, bold and vibrant contrasts, and distinctive surface treatments give rise to richly textured compositions full of depth and detail.

As natural or artificial light falls across the raised areas of the paint, it creates shifting patterns of light and shadow throughout the day, at times evoking the three-dimensional effect of a bas-relief.

Original works and authenticity

Each of my paintings is one of a kind, handmade and never reproduced as a second original copy.

All works are delivered with:

- The artist’s original handwritten signature.
- A certificate of authenticity identifying the work and attesting to its originality.
- A canvas painted along the side edges for a complete finish.

Packaging and shipping will be personally handled to ensure the work arrives intact.

I do not use frames: the painting continues around the sides of the canvas, making each work ready to display even without a frame.

Canvas thickness varies approximately from 1 to 5 cm, depending on the format and support used.

Every painting is unique. Every emotion is personal.

My wish is for each work to find a new home and to continue telling, through its colors, something different to whoever chooses to welcome it.
