“My work is visceral and layered, a portal that is felt in the body before it is understood by the mind. Through gestural abstraction, contrasts, and organized chaos, I invite viewers to cross chromatic layers and enter their own journey of memory, liberation, and rebirth. Each painting is a passage between visible and invisible worlds — from body to spirit, from chaos to flow, from silence to transformation.”
— Sonia J.

My art carries a voice deeply rooted in my personal experience — a journey marked by an unimaginable transformation. After more than thirty years in an intense, male-dominated corporate world, I crossed a threshold into art as a way to express my feelings, emotions, and, above all, to reconnect with my inner feminine self.
Each of my works is born from emotional context — a narrative of rebirth. I use matter with intensity and weight, building dense layers that turn the physical gesture into an extension of memory — a tactile abstraction. My colors are chosen intuitively, yet always balanced, giving each tone a psychological depth that transcends the formalism of traditional abstraction.
My collections carry a strong feminine and introspective essence. Through each piece, I want to breathe intimacy, inner listening, time, and empowerment. My language draws on the emotional and gestural tradition of post-war lyrical abstraction, yet I reinterpret it through a contemporary, feminine, and existential lens.
Where the pioneers of lyrical abstraction expressed the trauma of war and the search for artistic freedom, I express the trauma of an intense corporate life that led me, after thirty years, to complete burnout. In that journey of transformation, painting became my liberation — a release from high performance and a reconnection with the "Self".
The emotion behind lyrical abstraction remains the same, but its source is different: it is mine, deeply personal.
Through it, I hope to inspire, transform, and empower others — creating art with my own identity, art that transcends trends and time, carrying aesthetic sophistication and profound psychological depth..
