Art without life is not art. But life without art is death ! - (Jaime Sabines)

Sandro De Ponte has been immersed in the world of art since childhood, thanks to his family's handmade paper business. In contact with art from an early age, he took courses in drawing, painting and engraving, and worked in workshops in Italy. Passionate about human representation, his works feature portraits accompanied by symbolic elements. His figurative, non-realistic style, with exaggerated proportions, creates a unique harmony in his compositions.

Sandro's art is influenced by contemporary movement of Barcelona. The artist likes warm colours and hues of "ochre" and "red" dominate his work. He paints with acrylic, and using water, reworks the material, creating works with an abundance of texture. Human is at the centre of his work and is always represented with great tenderness. Virility is represented by male characters, while women symbolize the feminine side of every individual. He likes to paint couples, emphasizing values such as love and friendship. At times he paints single individuals in order to represent certain universal feelings such as fear, happiness, dreams, freedom, loneliness, sadness... Passion remains the theme of predilection for this artist of humanity.
