Federica Sala plays with the whimsical nature of glass. The amorphous and fragile material is contrasted by crystallized minerals and connects her work to today’s complex society of recognized science and changing concepts of the world.
Artist list
Federica Sala
We all know that Art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize truth at least the truth that is given us to understand. The artist must know the manner whereby to convince others of the truthfulness of his lies. / Pablo Picasso
Opposites cannot be divided. Glass and stone grow from each other. The boundaries disappear and the different elements become a collection of oxymoron in which everything exists because of its contrary. Glass is contradictive. It has a light delicacy, at the same time it is heavy and raw, it is soft, sharp, solid and liquid. True Lies are impossible structures that point out the fragility of the reality we know, showing just one of the possible variations of it.
