Working in oils on canvas and board, Pierangela Franzoni creates figurative-conceptual paintings defined by recurring depictions of female faces. A self-taught artist with a background in ceramics and drawing, she maintains a strong connection to tangible reality while foregrounding the concepts and ideas she seeks to express. Her compositions reflect a subtle balance between the experience of overcoming pain, responses to disorientation, and the sensation of suspended time, resulting in images that convey a sense of vulnerability in relation to the surrounding natural world.
