Something really special is happening in Venice right now, and I’m so glad to be a part of it.
Anima Mundi: the vital energy that flows through all things. It’s the subtle force connecting every form of existence, from the natural to the artificial, the visible to the invisible. The idea goes all the way back to Plato’s Timaeus, the soul of a living universe. But it feels just as alive today: this sense of an invisible network holding everything together, driving transformation, coexistence, and renewal across matter, time, and life.
Artists, designers, and architects are bringing this idea to life, each exploring how that universal energy shows up today. The correspondences between soul and body, humanity and nature, the organic and the synthetic. It’s a beautiful theme to sit with.
A NOTE FROM THE ARTIST
I am deeply grateful to be part of this group exhibition in the heart of Venice. To show work within the walls of a historic Palazzo Albrizzi-Capelo, alongside a gathering of artists, designers, and photographers united by such a profound theme, is a privilege that fills me with joy.
Golden Silence

Acrylic on Canvas

For me, having peace is gold.
Golden Silence is heavy in textures of gold, with vibrant reds, oranges, yellows, and deep burnished gold layered into the richness of a sunset. It glows with the quietness of life: the beauty of being happy inside, unhurried, unbothered by the noise and chaos of the world around us. It is a painting about stillness as wealth, and the profound luxury of inner peace.
Within the context of Anima Mundi, this silence is not absence; it is the hum of everything in balance.
Come and See It in Person
Words can only take a painting so far. Golden Silence lives in its textures — the weight of the gold, the heat of the sunset, the hush between the brushstrokes. Come walk through the Palazzo Albrizzi-Capello and experience it, and all the extraordinary works of this exhibition, for yourself.
