Cristallina Fischetti
b. 1984, London, UK is best known for abstract works which are a fusion of vibrant colours and gestural movements. Fischetti draws on her South American (Colombia/ Quichua) and Italian (Sicily/ Rome) heritage to create paintings, murals, installations and works on paper. Using a soak-staining method to apply paint to unprimed canvas, paper or linen laid out upon the floor, the resulting works resonate with the movement, energy and spontaneity used to create them.
Fischetti draws on her Shamanic birthright to conduct her life and work in accordance with the principles expressed in the philosophy of Paulo Coehlo, the teachings of Joseph Campbell and the psychology of Carl Jung.
