Serena Fineschi's Self-Portrait Exhibition at z2o Project in Rome

exhibition · 2026-04-26

Serena Fineschi (Siena, 1973) presents 'Noi e loro' at z2o Project in Rome, curated by Marina Dacci. The exhibition functions as an artistic self-portrait, exploring the artist's journey from childhood to adulthood through installations, photographs, and sculptures. It examines language as a dualistic communication code, addressing unspoken words and ambiguity in works like 'Le parole che non ti ho detto', 'Sonata muta', 'Silenzi', and 'Relazioni'. The body becomes a vehicle for expressing distance between self and relational systems, from intimate to social and public spheres. Works such as 'La battaglia di San Romano' depict childhood conflicts as play, while 'Bagno Eden' and 'Tra l'orizzonte e il mare' address adolescent tensions. 'Un giorno all'improvviso' and 'Les Fleurs du Mal' evoke a safe space of acceptance. In 'Vogliamo parlare d'amore', clay embodies the artist's generative relationship with her works and self-acceptance, as noted by Dacci in the accompanying critical text. A conversation between Fineschi and Dacci will take place on Monday, January 20, from 7 to 8 PM at z2o Project, offering further insight into the biographical and artistic aspects of the exhibition.
