Love Story

Love Story by Ceci Casariego, Oil on canvas, 2024

Selected for the 2025 London Art Biennale, Argentina. Oil on canvas, 2024. 120x200cm.

In the painting “Love story” I exploresomething as intimate as it is trite, love.Two eagles cling to each other as they freefall,never letting go, not even at the risk of a painful collision with sharp rocks.This powerful embrace symbolizes determinationand devotion, while pearls of wisdom surround them along the way– an image of the power that true love brings.The work is painted with two techniques that show the duality of love. Soft,smooth brushstrokes represent the rosy side, while areas with spontaneous,thick layers of paint embody the rough, hard side of life.

At 9, I discovered my talent for capturing what I saw, sparking a lifelong creative journey. Life took me through a European adventure, marriage, and motherhood. Along the way, I studied with renowned Argentine artists like Juan Doffo and María Luisa Manassero. Recently, I’ve been exploring how people influence and transform their environment, and how reality can hold many layers of meaning.
