"In the  rivalry between painting and photography Mary Mansey turns out to be the winner, finding a perfect and elegant balance in between.

Delicate and poetic images that have the freshness of a haiku: few simple elements tell us a whole world, an infinite shades of emotions. Bright, strong and cheerful, full of light, the same one that shines in the eyes of the artist, but also in each of us when we are in front of her artworks.

We should take time to get in contact with her visual poems, we have to be aware of every single element: forms, light and colors. Following this way we will learn to savor the beauty that leaves from our soul and light like a sun ray everything.

We will learn to observe everything and everyone with our inner eye. It seems incredible, but such lessons are so simply explained by the art of Mary Mansey."
