Marcella Casu

Born in Cagliari, Italy, in 1970. Lives and works in Rome.

"A painter is like the sea, it can’t but reflect the Sky"

"Recently I have worked on the human figure immersed in a natural landscape, showing the revelatory quality of this relationship through non representative elements. My interest lies in the integrity expressed by the nude, in being an individual radically, being free, with no shame nor fear.

I often present a scene where figures are dynamically immersed in the natural context. The scenery generally ends up with some kind of suspension, an enigmatic air, something invisible that’s taking place. A sort of happy metaphysics shining in the glory of the human form."

self untaught living painter.

I studied Biology (and still love it), graduated in Philosophy with honors (the Greeks!) and then entered an intense love affair with the mystery that surrounds us, through Painting. A practice which is a way for me to learn seemingly inaccessible to other means of knowledge. The process continually evolves, and I can't get bored.
