focus on: Francesca Pracilio
Nadia Belardi: She is an artist that I admire a lot because she can seize the essence of her subject. She seizes the moment of a gesture, of a look, of an attitude. The story told in her works deeply emerges from a lake of unique and transparent colour. Her strength is the transparency indeed. Her subjects are light and deep, too. I like her flowers that look as if they are made of glass. I like her landscapes that are essential, almost abstract, but so evocative. I like the framing of her subjects. I like her palette of colours. I like the message of depth in her ephemeral colour. Really unique, really original, really skilled.
