The Milk of Dreams #2 Print

This artwork was made during my live performance called “The Blending of Senses” showcased in Venice Biennale 2022 at Palazzo Albrizzi-Capello (Venice, Italy). It’s an acrylic on canvas using blue lilac and green colours. What they say: “ By performing solo, she engages in a passionate synaesthetic portrayal of her music, producing original paintings while singing and playing. This is achieved by installing a small piezo trigger on the back of each canvas and connecting them to a laptop. Each artwork will then be assigned to a different sound, which she can activate by painting on it. What she is aiming for is to create a contemporary and distinct composition for every performance session engaging with the viewers-listeners into blending of all senses. The performance allows BSP to broaden the show experience, bringing the public into her world, made of colours, visions and pastel palettes that are instantly distinctive of her production. The performance is always different and while she sings her own songs, she improvises with colours, depicting what she perceives in that present moment on canvas. The easels and tables she uses as a support for the equipment and the canvas, are made out of recycled cardboard specifically designed by an Italian artisan for the project and the colours are natural pigments she produces herself during the time she spends in nature - as often as possible since it’s her main source of inspiration. This touch of “artivism” make the people related to the cause of the environment care without being overwhelmed or bored as scientific reports do and it stimulates to action, triggering emotions and connection to humanity, not logic or fear.”
