Christmas lights

Christmas lights

Warmth in the winter night.

“Christmas Lights” is an evocative work created between 2013 and 2014. The choice of support is distinctive: oil on polystyrene produces a unique, slightly rough texture that intensifies the vibration of light. The scene depicts a narrow nighttime street framed by buildings in ochre and golden tones, illuminated by festive lights that punctuate the dark sky like small stars. A simple black frame defines the composition, enhancing by contrast the warmth that radiates from the painting.

The distinctive character of this work lies in its material experimentation. The use of polystyrene as a support is intentional: its irregular, porous surface interacts unpredictably with oil paint, generating a visual vibration that evokes both the sparkle of Christmas lights and the rough texture of urban façades.

Warm hues—ochre, gold, and orange—stand out sharply against the black of the sky and the frame, producing an intimate “lantern” effect that draws the viewer into a quiet, nocturnal atmosphere.
