Discover the Hidden Puzzle Corner

I’m excited to share that I’ve added a little interactive surprise to my website — a digital puzzle featuring my painting “Contrasting Obsessions”!

But here’s the catch: the Puzzle Corner is hidden somewhere on the site. Can you find it? Explore the pages, peek into unexpected places, and see if you can uncover this playful challenge.

🔹 Works on PC, tablets & mobile phones – play anytime, anywhere!
🔹 Having trouble? If the puzzle doesn’t load, let me know via the contact form so I can fix it.

Once you complete the puzzle — take a screenshot and tag me on Facebook! I’d love to see your results.

Happy hunting (and puzzling)!

Exciting New Products in my Zazzle Shop

I recently shared some news about my Society6 account being closed, just like many other artists received the same email. However, I’m thrilled to remind you that my Zazzle store has been running for over 8 years, and I’ve made some fantastic updates to my collection!

I’ve kept our all-time favorite leggings available in two designs: “Contrasting Obsessions” and “Winter is Coming.” But that’s not all — I’ve completely revamped the rest of the store!

Among the new products, you’ll find a variety of exciting items, including ping pong paddles, skateboard decks, oven mitt sets, aprons, bluetooth speakers, desk lamps, and even wireless phone chargers! Many of these products come with customizable options for size, color, and style, allowing you to add your unique touch.

I’m delighted to share this update with you and can’t wait for you to check out the new products featuring my designs. Click the link to my store and see what other interesting items await you! My store: https://www.zazzle.com/store/abstract_things/products

Dear friends, thank you for your support! I’m truly grateful to have the opportunity to share the results of my work with you.

Society6 is removing artist accounts

Today, I want to talk about a recent change that’s been affecting many artists, including myself. Society6, the platform where I showcased my designs, has been removing artist accounts, leaving many of us feeling disheartened. I received that infamous email notifying me that my account is no longer active, and I must admit, it has been a tough pill to swallow.

As a way to reflect on the journey we’ve had, I want to take a moment to nostalgically look back at some of the items that featured my designs that you could once purchase on Society6. Those creations represented countless hours of hard work and love, and it’s bittersweet to think they are no longer available on that platform.

 

But let’s not dwell on the sadness! I’m excited to share that I still have my shop on Zazzle, which I’ve mentioned before. This platform allows me to continue my passion and share my designs with all of you. And here’s some good news: I’ve been busy preparing new, amazing products that feature the classic black-and-white designs you all love!

So, let’s not lose heart! I promise to return next week with new items that I can’t wait for you to see. Thank you for your support, and let’s look forward to what’s next together 🙂 .

AVES e NATUREZA @ Villa Mimosa

Last year, I submitted my work to the AVES e NATUREZA, I Convocatória de Arte Postal do COA-POA / BIRDS and NATURE, I International Mail Art Call COA-POA in Porto Alegre, Brazil. Unfortunately, my piece got stuck in transit and arrived too late for me to participate in the exhibition.

However, after a few months, the organizers decided to hold the exhibition a second time. I was thrilled to learn that my work would be included in the upcoming exhibition.

Price Orientation – 2025

New Beta Feature on Artfacts: Price Orientation.

Navigating the art market can be tricky, with pricing often shrouded in opacity. Our new beta feature, Price Orientation, is here to help. While not a direct estimate or representation of gallery prices, this tool contextualises an artist’s market value based on their position and exhibition history. The pricing range offers a clearer view, providing transparency in an otherwise opaque market.

Hurry up and choose a painting before prices increase!

Ossigeno in Città @ AICS

I’m pleased to announce my participation in the “Ossigeno in Città” Mail Art Exhibition.

The exhibition “Ossigeno in Città” was first shown at the SCiA 131-Spazio di Cittadinanza Attiva in Torino, Italy on April 6, 2024.

AICS Comitato Provinciale di Torino presents the exhibition “Ossigeno in città” and invites the public to an immersive journey into the dimensions of creativity, connection and reflection on the urban environment through a popular medium such as postal art.

The exhibition investigates the meaning of breathing in the city through unique works from all over the world in response to the call created by Claudia Fiore. Letters, sketches, drawings, poems made with heterogeneous materials such as postcards, photographs, collages and everyday objects offer an alternative vision of the city context, awakening a human feeling of wonder.

The call “Oxygen in the city” was born from Claudia Fiore‘s desire and idea to explore interiority and listen to the hidden parts of oneself in relation to the environment, which can sometimes become difficult and suffocating. The works exhibited thus reflect the different declinations of the meaning of oxygen, suggesting an invitation to reflect on breathing as a fundamental element of our existence, as a symbol of life and therefore of creativity and hope. The exhibition also represents a tribute to the value of connection, shortening the distances between cities and countries of a world in which each participant can become an artist by sharing their own sensitivity.
