“From my point of view art should be something to enjoy. It should aid people in forgetting their worries, showing the beautifulness of being in the here and now, the magic of being alive. I invite the viewer into my world like a guest into my home. I want them to be relaxed and comfortable. My paintings accomplish their purposes if when taken into a home or gallery, they create a sense of happiness and an appreciation.”

.The works of Andrea Aste are a joyful inquiry into reality. An attempt to tear away Maya’s veil with usage of nonsense and spatial deformations combined with his personal use of bright colours, perfectly reflecting his sunny personality.

“I prefer to focus my attention on the beauty in the world. Why concentrate on the negative aspects of existence? These are burdens which prevent us from soaring and reaching for a sense of tranquility and happiness. From being be able to accomplish something good and positive in our lives. Everything is marvelous. Everything is perfect in the way it is.”

And indeed through the works of AA the observer looks at the world with the eye of a child, everything has a spirit, is alive, everything talk to him capturing him in a dimension made up of delicate and poetic atmospheres, suspended in a land without time and space.

“Each day we must remind ourselves to experience something new. To discover tastes never savoured. Letting ourselves give into other sensations. To fearlessly explore the world that exists outside the walls in which we confine ourselves. Once beyond the horizon of what is familiar, to dance, be joyous, love… Every new horizon is a new universe awaiting.”
