Grazia Inserillo's Fiber Art Exhibition at Studio Masiero in Milan

Studio Masiero in Milan presents 'Un seme profondo', a solo exhibition by fiber artist Grazia Inserillo, running from March 4 to April 30, 2025. Curated by Gianna Panicola, the show features five cycles of works—Linum, Organismi, Reviviscenze, Sempreverdi, and Fossili—that reinterpret plant elements like flax, hemp, and papyrus through embroidery and traditional techniques. Inserillo, born in Palermo and raised on Isola delle Femmine, trained as a sculptor and now teaches plastic/sculptural disciplines. Her practice, rooted in the nets and embroideries of the women in her family, uses thread to investigate anthropological concepts of existence and dwelling. The exhibition marks Studio Masiero's first fiber art show, reinforcing its focus on Sicilian art. Inserillo's works are held in permanent collections of Museo di Arte Contemporanea Palazzo Riso in Palermo and San Rocco in Trapani. She has participated in group shows in Italy, Germany, France, and the United States.
