This woman artist paints dreamscapes from parallel universes, hyperspace worlds and alien planets. Neon colors, metallic shine and holographic reflections take us in a psychedelic journey between light and darkness. Â� Rieslings art has an aura of beautiful magic. Her extensive collection of letters she has written in one of her paintings answers the everyday question: What am I reading? A collection of letters one would find in a journal Â� Riesling is the manifestation of the obsessive creative impulse that keeps one awake at night. But that isnt what shes painting—the paintings are translucent, and a vast assortment of writing bubbles and dust are sprinkled on the surface. Â� Rieslings medium is also paint, which she fills with colored paint to resemble a truly abstract picture surface. In one of the large paintings, Â� Riesling shows a map of the southern part of what is now Scotland, in a primitive typeface and broad stripes of green and black. Â� Rieslings paints with a paint brush which looks like sandpaper. Paint is the most important thing in her world. In the landscape, Â� Rieslings map has been painted black and filled with dense forests of trees and shrubbery. Her coat of green paint reflects the distant sky, the trees and grassy woods. Riesling cuts the map in pencil so that it is hard to make out any detail. Rieslings relationship to this map is particularly difficult to discover. Its too complicated, too complex, too advanced, it is not legible. Rieslings use of large brushstrokes, especially on the edges, makes the map look like it has been torn from the paper. Rieslings paint is used to make the paper as a whole look like a painting. Â� Rieslings use of, and avoidance of, a material that makes one feel warm and comfortable is the most important thing in her world. Her land-based painting brings the surreal, even scary, with a hint of the domestic. This is the kind of work that gives an impression of a space which is deep, wondrous, and beautiful.
This woman artist paints dreamscapes from parallel universes, hyperspace worlds and alien planets. Neon colors, metallic shine and holographic reflections take us in a psychedelic journey between light and darkness. Her paintings are so particular that we cant help but wonder what could have been, yet remain immersed in their mystery."Cozzetto has an art that is high and intense in its own way, but also all-over in a way that is not derived from any one piece. She gives a new clarity to what is familiar, but never settles for what we expect of her work. She is always seeking a more personal universe that can be more personal, more personal, more personal. She has a restless imagination and a touch for all kinds of unexpected arrangements, and her drawings make it clear that she is thinking of something more than herself. More than her paintings. Since the very beginning, Cozzetto has made her paintings in oil on canvas, which is a different material from her earlier work. But the new work is made from oil, not paint, which is stronger and more durable than paint. When she paints on wood, she is using the same kind of material as her earlier work, but on a much more complicated canvas. The new paintings are like mosaics in a museum, and they provide an important part of a reason for her success as an artist.She states in a booklet that the drawings are her most important source for her paintings. I have spent many hours on drawing a picture for a painting, she says. It is also true that the drawing is the most important thing in the painting. At the same time, I dont like to paint pictures, she continues. She states that she uses drawing to build up her works, as she describes her paintings. What she is building is a picture, not only for her paintings, but for her drawings. The drawings are like memories, like dreams, and like dreams, the paintings are like memories. Cozzetto writes that she doesnt like to paint, but she also thinks it is important to draw.

This woman artist paints dreamscapes from parallel universes, hyperspace worlds and alien planets. Neon colors, metallic shine and holographic reflections take us in a psychedelic journey between light and darkness. Her images show us the signs of an alien world, and also of the triumph of good over evil and the intelligent over the ignorant. The visage of the human being, the expressive face, sometimes in a mask, occasionally in a body, can also be seen in these pictures. From the face of a mythical hero to the face of a figment of the mind, cosmic and terrestrial, luminous and dark, are fused in a kaleidoscopic cosmos. The planet earth is one of the primary bodies in this globe, the invisible realm of the mystic, the ungodly and the obscure. In the otherworldly realm, light and dark, deep and surface, reveal themselves in harmony with each other.In another series of pictures, she presents the mythic and religious scenes. The results of the emotions and passions are depicted in beautiful and charmingly elegant etchings of the figures. In these etchings, the landscape of the heavens and the sky of the earth, the ambivalent and the ecstatic, are juxtaposed. The major character of each picture is the figure of Jesus, the saints, and the angels. In these etchings, each of the scene is allegorically transformed and enlarged by the spirit. This spirit, that which motivates the imagination and animates the soul, penetrates the depths of the human being. In the heart of the earth, the world of the divine, the one that is in spiritual harmony with our earthly realm, lies the figure of the human being. In the mystical realm, the darkness of the underworld, the innermost realm of the dark, is revealed. The divine, the dreamy, and the sad, the innocent, and the gloomy, are united in the same world. The world of the divine, the world of the earthly, the world of the corporeal, is revealed.
These works are enigmatic and sometimes seem to be animated by a luminous spirit. The artist selects a variety of materials and gives them a metallic sheen, which evokes the ornate silver shimmer of fossilized feathers. For example, in one of the pastels, a rust-red-orange-and-black-and-white silhouette of a fetus stares at us from a darkened background. An over-sized drawing of a delicate pair of horn-rimmed glasses with four babies nearby rests against the wall of a darkened room. Two faces—a sad, lonely boy and a heartbroken girl—hang in the background, their eyes closed and their mouths covered. And, finally, in a bust, a hand pulls the hair from its head and pushes a toy soldier through a hospital corridor. The result is a series of surprising images.Strangely enough, though, most of the paintings are drawn on canvas, which is the easiest way to make a good painting. The work is hard to pin down, so you have to look for something in it that is not in the painting but which is there. The result is a rather fantastic show of paintings by this talented young artist. It is a show of surrealism, made up of all kinds of unexpected images.
