Francesca Pasquali
Italian
Francesca Pasquali, born in Bologna in 1980, delves into the essence of natural shapes, replicating their structural textures with plastic and industrial materials to craft intricate installations. Her artistry navigates the intersection of organic and inorganic, nature and culture, redefining recycled materials into aesthetically rich objects. This approach challenges viewers' perceptions, inviting tactile interactions that unveil the beauty in everyday elements.
Pasquali's works are deeply intertwined with their environments, often shaped by architectural spaces. Her artistic cycles, like the Straws series, feature plastic straws meticulously arranged on various surfaces, creating dynamic textures. Through experimentation with materials like neoprene in the Frappe cycle and plastic broom bristles in the Setole series, Pasquali blurs the boundaries between art and the everyday, urging viewers to reconsider their surroundings. Her innovative use of technology, seen in works like Glasswall (2015), showcases her commitment to exploring new artistic frontiers. Honored with awards such as the Cairo Prize 2015, Pasquali's artistry has been showcased globally, including exhibitions at prestigious venues like the Sydney Opera House and Leila Heller Gallery in New York.
