Soren Vana

In my past, I was a graphic designer—an experience that continues to inform my vision, my sense of composition, and my relationship with color. Today, through painting, I pursue this visual dialogue, but with more freedom, texture, and intuition.

Color plays a central role in my work. It doesn't seek to reproduce reality, but to transcend it. I like to explore contrasts, playing with vibrant or subtle palettes to create sensitive and vibrant atmospheres.

My years in graphic design taught me the rigor of line, the balance of forms, and the importance of detail. But it is painting that allows me today to create more instinctive, more personal works, where gesture and emotion take precedence.
