We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful CLAUDIO PARENTELA. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with CLAUDIO below.
CLAUDIO, appreciate you joining us today. Did you always know you wanted to pursue a creative or artistic career? When did you first know?
It was around 1995 that for a series of circumstances I found myself facing a crossroads, or rather faced with a very important choice that I had to make for my life, which would affect my whole future, all the years to come . I think that everything that was not perfectly clear to me needed to come out. I listened to my heart, profusely, with all of myself … the only thing that mattered to me was to create every day, for every day of my life
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers
for me it is essential to be free in everything I do, it is essential to seek freedom in everything I create, it is essential to communicate this constant feeling of seeking freedom …. my works are dreamy, anarchic, colorful. I like to experiment with everything that catches my attention, that breaks through my heart ….. I like to represent my feelings of the human soul, its weaknesses, its contradictions, its knots, its threads. I like to paint, draw, photograph, mix everything in ever new ways.My curiosity is inexhaustible, and always playful and joyful.For the first 14 years of my artistic career I painted and drew only in black and white.I love black indian ink, and the infinite shades between white and black, are like the 1000 shades of the human soul.
What’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative in your experience?
as I said before it is essential for me to always feel free, in everything I do … art allows me to be, it makes me feel free, true, real
Alright – so here’s a fun one. What do you think about NFTs?
I am very interested in NFTs. I would like to know more, I would like to study the matter better, and of course I would like to sell my works as NFTs.
