Sabrina Casadei's Fluid Abstractions at Eduardo Secci Gallery
Sabrina Casadei (Rome, 1985) presents a solo exhibition at Galleria Eduardo Secci in Florence, showcasing paintings that blend abstract and unsettling imagery—stormy seas, volcanic eruptions, sea monsters, cosmic explosions, and flowering fields. Her work, inspired by Luigi Ghirri's search for the fantastic in everyday life, employs a material technique using acrylic and oil, evoking both Gaetano Previati's Symbolism and Jackson Pollock's Action Painting. The title of the show alludes to a reality that constantly renews itself through unusual forms. The paintings create a fluid, ever-becoming world, suspended between drama, discovery, and anticipation, with references to Lewis Carroll and A. A. Milne. The exhibition runs in 2018.
