About the artist Chiara Smirne

Chiara Smirne is an award-winning artist based in Italy whose paintings have been widely exhibited nationally, as well as in Spain, Germany, and the United States. She describes her works as representing "unreal scenarios inspired by dreams, memories, and fantasies". One of Smirne's main subjects is the urban landscape. What interests her is the portrayal of everyday life, which, upon closer examination, unveils glimpses of something fake. She endeavors to evoke "intimate, unconscious, and often irrational feelings".
