Vickie Vainionpää's Metamorphoses at Belvedere San Leucio

Canadian artist Vickie Vainionpää's exhibition 'Metamorphoses' is on view at the Belvedere San Leucio in Caserta, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The show features abstract paintings that merge new technologies with oil colors, creating organic morphologies that blur the line between analog and digital. The title references Ovid's epic poem, specifically the Triumph of Bacchus and Ariadne fresco by Fedele Fischetti on the ceiling of the Great Dining Room. Vainionpää's Gaze series responds to this fresco using eye-tracking software to translate her gaze into lines and curves, offering a post-digital reinterpretation. The Belvedere San Leucio, originally built by Charles of Bourbon as a silk factory in the 18th century, later became a royal palace and winery, now serves as an exhibition space. The show runs at the monumental complex in Caserta, Italy.
