Serena Barison

Serena Barison is an Italian artist and architect based in Rome. Her work explores quiet domestic moments, suspended gestures, and figures often seen from behind, caught in a state of waiting or introspection.

Working mainly with oil on canvas and collage, she builds intimate visual narratives where everyday objects, interiors, and human presence become fragments of memory. Her background in architecture influences her attention to space, composition, silence, and the emotional atmosphere of rooms.

Her paintings are rooted in the poetry of the ordinary: cups, coats, shoes, thresholds, walls, and pauses. Through muted colors and essential compositions, she investigates the delicate tension between presence and absence.
