Alina Picazio

My work explores the fragile boundaries between memory and oblivion, examining how personal and collective histories dissolve and reconstruct themselves through time. Using layered techniques that combine traditional painting with experimental approaches, I create visual metaphors for the erosion of memory.
Drawing from architectural fragments of urban landscape, my paintings function as archaeological excavations of temporal experience. Each work captures fleeting moments suspended between presence and absence, visibility and transparency, using techniques that mirror the photographic process of development and decay.
