Exhibition

Annalisa Amedeo. Sinestesie. Natura, Storia, Arte

Annalia Amedeo is an artist and restorer of ceramic works who decided to use her knowledge and technical skills to create porcelain sculptures which continually interact with space. Her solo show at the Casina delle Civette displays 50 works which “cross the threshold of time and pass through all its dimensions”, to quote the curator of the exhibition  Elena Paloscia. Hers are conceptual synesthesia: in harmony with nature they investigate the essence of the human condition, pain, metamorphosis and change. The principal element is the leaf, which reproduces itself, curls up and changes appearance, thus initiating a journey towards salvation and hope. Strength and mutability and the dialog between being and appearance become an integral part of the artists poetics, enhanced by extraordinary manual skills. Info: www.museivillatorlonia.it
