Samasta

Samasta’s luminous paintings of bold color, abstracted shape, and frenetic movement portray a sense of energy that reverberates with the artist’s unique and passionate spirit.  Fueled by his intense love of art, color, and composition, Samasta paints and repaints his canvases, an artistic process that produces works that are often laden with numerous layers of acrylic.  As he repaints, Samasta seeks compositional balance and perfection and through the act of painting, he embarks on an artistic journey that is at times frustrating and confusing, but as he reaches an artistic breakthrough, he emerges fulfilled, as if coming out of a tunnel.  Although Samasta’s works are not literal or biographical in theme, they are each imbued with his personal love of art and function as his own reflection.

A native of Italy, Samasta regularly exhibits his colorful abstractions throughout North and Central America and Europe.  Samasta currently lives and works in both Tuscany and Costa Rica.
