The artist lives and works in her studio in San Benedetto del Tronto, in the centre of Italy. Growing up in Manfredonia, she developed a great passion for drawing, which she continued to cultivate during her university years in Pescara. After meeting a group of artists in San Benedetto del Tronto in 2008, she decided to give space to her love for art and attended training courses and art workshops, exploring both figurative and abstract art and experimenting with different techniques and media. Since 2012 she has dedicated herself solely to his artistic career. Her work has been shown in numerous exhibitions, including the International Biennial of Bari and Metropolitan Area in 2018, for three years at the AR[t]CEVIA International Art Festival and the Cimitile Prize. There have been several exhibitions abroad: Paris, Tokyo, Bratislava. Among the many solo shows, she was present in Foggia with the exhibition “Oltre l’Orizzonte” in 2017. She also designed the cover of the album “Metaphors” by the well-known American bassist Alphonso Johnson. Since May 2022 the image of her work “Malala. Stronger than fear” has been part of the permanent installation “Arte del Dialogo–Agorà” in Pieve di Cadore. Assunta Cassa has created her own original figurative language through the division of the visual space that originates from the fragmentation into pixels of digital images. In particular, she takes her cue from the “dimension” that we unconsciously live in our smartphones, computers, tablets: the tiny, infinitesimal pixels’ dimensions, which, incredibly fast in their overlapping, animate the images and give life to our screens. Assunta’s idea is to crystallize, isolate, manipulate, mix, and materialize them on her canvases, with a quantum effect. With her work she wants to show us the current reality as a fragmented pixels with intense colors that intertwine and condense into a single image, filtered by her sensitivity, her thoughts and her experiences.
