Italian school boy challenged by his inability to use language to communicate with his North American surroundings. Decades later that boy is Filippo Ioco, one of the most talented artists communicating to people around the world with the language of color. Today, many of his paintings are requested internationally and speak to thousands.
The intense journey and passion for living a positive and brilliant life are reflected in the energy of Filippo's paintings. "One of the most powerful aspects of my work is its ability to speak without imagery." This energy can be transmitted without words, sounds or pictures. In this way Filippo has had an effect on people around the world, communicating with the language of their souls.
After exploring various traditions of expressive art, Filippo discovered his personal style of painting when he created 'movement of color'. The colors are composed in block fields or splashed spontaneously together. The final compositions hold a delicate balance between light, weight, color and movement. "If you gave your imagination complete freedom to explore color, you could lose yourself in all of its possibilities."
