Artist Statement
My work looks at this quiet street in Sirmione Italy, a historic town that borders Lake Garda. The lookout from Scalinger Castle captures both Lake Garda and the Italian Alps beautifully in its view. Only being less than 1 hour from fair Verona its normally a tourist hotspot. However in the off season of March it is peacefully quiet and serene with only the strong winds to listen to. The objective of my artwork is to emerge the viewer in the atmosphere I felt when experiencing these places and create a connection with the viewer.
