Fresh, changeable and direct, Annalu’s art knows how to touch the spectator’s inner chords provoking the deepest sensations and recalling ancestral emotions.

The major focus of her works is on the theme of water, primeval central element of life. Water is the origin of all things: everything is made of water, and everything returns to water.

In the works of the Artist there is a sense of metamorphosis, in pas­sing, of evolution as a sort of journey between different states, between different realities, a spirit of inquiry that shares some typical aspects of the science of alchemy.

Annalu is capable of assembling in­congruent elements such as resins and paper, bark and fiberglass, bi­tumen and sand, cement and roots, to create new realities, suspended worlds where alchemy is lightness.

Her creations are a moment of abstraction that is constantly moving. The viewer experiences new realities within the artist ‘s imagination.

From New York to Naples, Irina Alexandrina captures the spirit of these two wonderful cities.

According to Alexandrina, cities are like people. They have their own characters, habits, inclinations. They have their own preferences and tastes, merits and faults.

Irina says that her painting style and artistic views were formed under the influence of Claude Monet, Alfred Sisley, Paul Cezanne, Jean Bérault. This is fully felt in the lightness and translucency of the images of Naples, Florida that she creates. The streets of Naples are depicted with sincere love. The artist manages to skillfully convey the special, incomparable charm of our southern town.

Irina’s Naples is exquisitely beautiful and friendly. It is a town that opens its arms to the people from all over the word and is always filled with romance and sophistication. It is the town of musicians and artists, the town that many great people call home and contribute to its unique culture and lifestyle.

Irina captures the essence of Naples with all its elegance in a tropical setting. Working “Plein Aire,” on location, allows her to evoke that true essence of Naples on canvas and the recognizable architecture we all admire.
