Information provided by the Artist: Nature and luminosity inspire Bellacera’s work, especially the perception of space, light and patterning. In his luminous paintings radiant forms emerge and dissolve to evoke feelings of transcendence and seeing something for the first time. In this way, through painting or sculpture, the mystery and awe of discovery and creation is continuously renewed.” His artistic influences include JMW Turner's early 19th century atmospheric seascapes, Kandinsky's early 20th century spiritual abstractions and James Turrell, who works with light. Bellacera attended Massachusetts College of Art, Humboldt State University, and UC Santa Barbara where he received an MFA. Bellacera has exhibited throughout the United States and has produced art for private and corporate clients for over 30 years. He has completed public art projects for colleges, libraries, health care facilities, and other public spaces across the nation. Projects included murals, large-scale multi-panel art and metal sculptures.
