Teresa Bellini
“In every painting a whole is mysteriously enclosed, a whole life of tortures, doubts, of hours of enthusiasm and inspiration.”” – Vassily Kandinsky
Born in Padua, Teresa studied Eastern languages at the Ca ‘Foscari University of Venice. Her passion for the East took her all the way to China, where she lived between the late 1980s and the early 1990s. Back in Italy, she worked in the translation industry for 20 years while raising her two children. Curious and passionate, Teresa loves music,water, reading, travelling.
However, her desire and need to paint have always been there, like a constant note playing in the background. She found in abstract painting her favorite form of expression which since 2021 has become a fundamental component of her life. Since 2021 he has organized three solo exhibitions in Italy and has participated in numerous group exhibitions and art fairs in Italy, Europe and New York. She currently collaborates with three galleries in Turin, Barcelona and New York.
Poetica
“Painting is a pure expression of freedom, instinct and harmony.”
Painting is as natural as breathing; it happens despite everything and while the world runs at its own pace. Teresa Bellini’s art came about suddenly, driven by a flow of emotions and memories, and by an urge to express them. Her choice of colours is instinctive, as is her taste for highly textural abstract painting. By mixing large overlapping colour fields and more formal painting, Teresa creates intense emotional landscapes where the observers can immerse and lose themselves.
