Giulia Messina - 2020
“Within her practice lies an ever changing language: still lives and performative-parties documentation transform into oil paintings and marker drawings through a meticulous technical translation, a brutal pop fantasy.
Eroticism, burlesque, theatre and drag are another key point and allow to weave a complex network of media, again splitting her language through sculpture and photography, vegetation as the elements of her visual palette.The ambiguity of this big organic potpourri lays behind the delicacy of a paradox, the horror vacui forcing a colorful atmosphere to take over the representation, the craving of a fig, the collapse of the jelly”.
