Lorenza Cavalli (1978) graduated in painting at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan, where she currently lives and works.
During her academic education she was chosen as the sole artist for a large project on the nautical world that led her to paint works appreciated by the most illustrious protagonists of the sea's world in Italy, France, Switzerland, Holland, Russia, United States, India , China, Brazil and United Arab Emirates.
She obtains a scholarship at the Center of Contemporary Art Villa Arson in Nice and an artist's residence at the Fabbrica del Vapore in Milan.
Inside her atelier she opens a space for interaction between arts and various disciplines, aimed at the enhancement of talents.
P o e t i c s
The foundation of my research looks at the alliance between the material and the immaterial state.
Starting from my abstract works that combine painting and sculpture, where I want to capture the energy arising from the point of contact between tangible and intangible,
to the the marble and alabaster sculpture with metal inserts,
up to the most recent works, where the transformation of objects of recovery becomes a means to unveil "other" dimensions within the everyday.
The figurative painting, which characterized the first part of my education, offered me the opportunity to play on the borderline between the visible and the invisible dimension.
From the subject of these paintings comes my interest for the synergy between the known and the unknown, of which navigation becomes a symbol: emblem of the human drive to tend towards to the absolute.
