In a subtle dialogue with the beautiful 18th-century frescos and stucs decorating the walls and ceilings of Palazzo Albrizzi-Capello’s Sala della Musica exceptionally arranged for this occasion, and collateral to a National Pavilion of the 60th Biennale of Art, the exhibition will feature a unique display of large scale triptych folding screens of her most recent paintings. The artist invites us to cast a new glance at her favourite subject, Water, at once a pictorial medium, a symbol and a resource in the very heart of our contemporary issues – deeply connected with sea travels, migrations, foreign encounters, hazards, unknown, imaginary or unconscious territories. “First of all, wherever you go and wherever you are, you will always encounter foreigners – they/we are everywhere. Secondly, no matter where you find yourself, you are always, truly, and deep down inside, a foreigner” (Adriano Pedrosa, curator for the 2024 Biennale of Art).
