ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Face applied on canvas, clay material, dimensions 25x29x13 cm, adorned with 535 zircons (4 mm) and a central ring in white gold. Semi-gloss black paint, sandy effect. Weith 1,8 Kg. The zircons, set with a tribal-inspired motif, add a touch of light to the artwork. The eyes, painted in metallic black acrylic, exude an aura of mystery and depth. This sculpture combines precious materials and refined painting technique, symbolizing a symbolic exploration of the ancient island of Thera. At the heart of Pamela Ranya's work Thera emerges a deep dialogue with the history and symbolism of the island of Thera, also known as Santorini. This iconic place, dominated by the volcano, has a rich history rooted in Greek mythology and Platonic philosophical thought. The use of terracotta and zircons evokes the geological stratifications of the island, while the central ring in white gold symbolizes the volcano which, according to legend, shaped Thera itself. The semi-gloss black paint with sandy effect not only emphasizes the artistic depth of the work, but also recalls the black sands of the local beaches, ever-changing witnesses to the tumultuous history of the island. The zircons, besides representing the light reflected from the sea and the magnificent skies surrounding the island, are set with a tribal motif suggesting a connection with the ancient ceremonies and rituals that took place on Thera. The eyes painted in metallic black acrylic add an element of enigma and introspection, perhaps evoking the mystery surrounding the destruction of Minoan civilization due to volcanic eruptions, a historical event that may have inspired Plato's myth of Atlantis. In summary, Thera by Pamela Ranya is not just a work of art, but a testament to how the past can be reinterpreted through the filter of artistic imagination, offering the public a reflection on the beauty and tragedy that characterize the history of this iconic place in the Aegean Sea. This piece is a unique creation.

The Roman artist Pamela Ranya draws her inspiration from an interior research process, placing it as the maximum of her existence. She attended the art institute and then specialized in the Pantheon multimedia academy in Rome, in advertising graphics and web design. Lover of the oriental world, she deepens in artistic and professional form one of her greatest passions, oriental dance. Dance, teach and finally create a boutique of handmade oriental costumes. From here her creativity never stops, in fact several art exhibitions follow one after the other, inspired by the growth of her "self". A common feature of her installations and paintings are the use of mainly recycled materials that combine with acrylic, mixed paints, creations of faces and hands in plaster and clay. It is precisely through the union of sculpture and recycled materials that the artist finds her maximum form of expression. It was a strange "encounter" and the myth and the story take shape through the artist's emotions in a three-dimensional plane on a series of 40 x 40 canvases. Each emotion gives birth to a character that is linked to the number, the color, the light and symbols. Vintage style, elegance, alchemy and symbolism mix with a cybernetic, gothic and futuristic world giving life to the unique identity of these works, presented in the first exhibition in March 2016 entitled "the boy". After her first solo show in 2015 at the P&G in via Margutta in Rome, in March 2016 she presented the series "The boy" 26 sculptures of faces on canvas portraying historical characters, gods and fantasy. Inspired by a tattoo artist, at a stroke of lightning and a flash of genius she begins the collection by bringing it on several Tattoo Conventions: a world in which she will have great success also collaborating in the realization of the contest prizes during the days of the event. Faces of celebrity and fantasy, Baroque sculptures combined with recycled materials become real cyborgs, a perfect graft that has given birth to a new style. Raw materials undergo a transformation changing their nature, so as to take on a new and precious aspect. In recent years the artist has also expressed herself in other forms such as photography, putting emotions and awareness first in a self-observation also expressed in digital and video art.
