Paola Adornato

My artistic production embraces two genres, the more abstract one, linked to nature and the other focused on the urban landscape. In my works people do not appear, but traces to be discovered that people have left, human spaces, I am intrigued by showing the relationship between man, nature and the environment.
During walks in the parks I observe the bark of the trees, in some I already see the right image for the painting (whether they are human profiles or abstractions) the shapes are ready to be used, in others I have to work a lot until I get the result I want ' interest .
My paintings highlight subjects that we want to leave in the shade, I see them and transform them into works of art, thus becoming positive and intriguing objects or landscapes instead of waste, which come to life with color. I find it interesting to let people know that many of my works show places that no longer exist today, structures that have been demolished or definitively closed in this period of time.

Paola was born in 1972. I live and work in Turin.
Graduated at the Primo Liceo Artistico and attended the sculpture course at the Accademia of Belle Arti.
She has started the artistical trip that approached her to the painting and finding in the acrylic, her current art expression.
