Nino

Nino's creative path almost resembles his life's journey.
From an early age, he was bathed in colors and crayons. He drew everywhere, in his school notebook and on the walls of his home and school. Painting and drawing are Nino's life: the one he has chosen as the primary form of expression for what he feels, sees and imagines. Passionate about art since childhood, he naturally decided to follow an academic path in keeping with his dreams and talent. In Tunis, he studied at the Institut supérieur des beaux-arts.
Thirsty for adventure and exoticism, Nino decided to discover the other side of the world: Indonesia. He chose Bandung, the capital of West Java in Indonesia, which is considered a hub of artistic creativity. The city hosts thousands of workshops, conferences and festivals devoted to all forms of art, from the most traditional to the most innovative.Nino joined the Institute of Indonesian Arts and Culture at the Seni Budaya Indonesia Bandung Institute (ISBI Bandung) in the department of fine arts, painting, sculpture and artistic research. In a cosmopolitan, multicultural atmosphere, he immerses himself in Indonesian culture, traditional techniques and cultural heritage.
In addition to his academic training, the stay in Indonesia enabled the artist to discover and choose his own universe, and to learn from renowned artists. From Tunis, to Bandung, Jakarta, Bali and now Montreal, where Nino lives his passion, his dream is now his daily reality.
To create and exhibit his paintings. In Montreal, where he currently resides, his work is on show in several galleries. Each work is a lived, shared experience that continues to live elsewhere, far from Nino's home, and carries in sometimes minute detail the reflection of the artist's thoughts and reception of the world and others. In his portraits, where the woman is both model and muse, there's no escaping the power of his gaze, which concentrates the emotions, life and soul of his subject and model. The mystery remains, even if everything has been said, and it's up to each and every one of us to discover sadness, joy, anger and audacity. It's an invitation to enter the world of the work, going beyond the dimensions of the canvas. Nino's World is under construction, made up of striking, boldly colored works inspired by life in all its complex simplicity and mysterious purity.
