Maria Jole Serreli's 'Distanze a colori' at Oristano Gallery

exhibition · 2026-05-05

Maria Jole Serreli (Rome, 1975) presents 'Distanze a colori' at a hybrid space between gallery and private home in Oristano, Sardinia. The exhibition progresses from black and white to explosive reds, with red thread binding objects like a chair, bread basket, teacup, grandfather's glasses, and a poet's watch to canvas. Serreli's thread acts as an antithesis to the ancient Fates, giving new life to fragments of past and present. The show is hosted by a venue that blends domestic intimacy with exhibition space.
