Art is a state of connection that uses the existence ingredients to unite the worlds of the possible with those of the impossible.

Lorenza Cavalli ​

The foundation of my research lies in the alliance between the visible and the invisible.

In my most recent body of work dedicated to reclaimed art, "time" becomes both an ingredient and a medium in the creative process. In these pieces, painting engages with surfaces marked and shaped by the passage of years, evoking memories and creating visual syntheses in a compelling balance between past and present.

The points of light, created in oil using a unique technique of applying the material, deepen my investigation of light.

Like natural lamps, these works represent the evolution of a journey that began with abstract pieces combining painting and material inserts, exploring the energy that emerges from the interplay between the tangible and the intangible.

Parallel to this, my sculptural research delves into the use of marble and alabaster in combination with metals.

Figurative painting, which characterized the early part of my artistic career, allowed me to explore how technique is not a tether to the past but rather an essential added value for achieving new heights of skill and creativity.

This technical ability has enabled me to cross the threshold of the recognizable and venture into the vastness of perception.

During my academic training, I was selected as the sole artist for a Nautical Art project, in which I created over seventy oil paintings on canvas that were highly appreciated by enthusiasts and key figures in the maritime world in Italy and abroad. The subject of these works sparked my interest in the synergy between the known and the unknown, with navigation as a symbol and emblem of humanity's drive to reach the absolute.

Today, my works are part of private collections in Italy, France, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Russia, the United States, India, China, Brazil, Japan, and the United Arab Emirates.
