Silvia Argiolas: 50 small canvases and a site-specific installation at Richter Fine Art in Rome

Richter Fine Art in Rome presents an exhibition of fifty small paintings and a site-specific installation by Silvia Argiolas (born 1977 in Cagliari). The artist offers a schizophrenic version of reality through a wild, expressionist style, addressing obsessions, manias, and perversions that conceal a deep evaluation of everyday life. The small format favors a fragmentary, unsolemn viewpoint: brief, recondite scenes with acidic colors and material volumes create a syncopated narrative akin to a nightmare, marked by a constant alteration of perception. Visual and pictorial collages reflect the fragmented self undergoing continuous splitting and distortion. Interiority passes seamlessly from inside to outside in an imaginary where crudeness and trash become lived experience, conviction, and dream. The exhibition is curated by Michele Luca Nero.
