ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Trasformazioni is a bronze sculpture of a chubby man with many flowers. The title means Transformation in Italian. In the artist conception, transformation begins from inside out. In this piece, flowers are the symbol of the change, and the fact they emerge from books and the head of the character, means that change origins from knowledge, especially from self knowledge. Transformation means a deep understanding oneself and to take a conscious choice to twist one’s life, making into something different and renewed. The calm expression of the man’s face refers to the acceptance beyond self judgment. This piece has a black and green patina, the classical bronze colors. The black patina is made from the green one, after the burning process, so magical and mystical. Please remember that this piece is part of a series of 6, and the patina (colors) may vary a little from piece to piece (I always try to make them the most similar, but part of the patina’s beauty exactly their uniqueness). The size includes the base.

STATEMENT: Francesca Dalla Benetta's work is characterized by mixed anatomies and forms. Human faces and bodies are combined with different textures, skins and elements, giving rise to hybrid beings. Through her aesthetics, in balance between the classic and the surreal, the artist studies the themes of transformation, sense of belonging and self-perception, the ability to adapt, stereotypes and categorization. She searches for the fine line that separates personal identity from social conventions, sanity from madness, studying the differences between perception and reality. Francesca's figures are a look inward and out of control, they are a way of containing the uncontainable. The stories of each character, isolated in an intimate and unreal dimension, are reflections on the identity of misfits and the many facets of being. As an artist, her most important task is to communicate and stimulate a different way of feeling and thinking. She mainly resorts to sculpture because it is a lasting solidity in contrast to the volatility of the mind.
