"Ma davvero" rug
"Ma davvero" rug
"Ma davvero le pensavi tutte quelle cose? Quel giorno, solo un giorno, quella bella luce negli occhi."
"But did you really think all those things? That day, just one day, that beautiful light in your eyes."
Perfectly remembering the look of that person who spoke to you one day with true intent. Their eyes even made you forget the words, which were not sincere at all.
The daughter of a Sardinian weaver, Caterina Frongia experiments with the craftsmanship of her homeland along with a more contemporary perspective on weaving. Textile writing is the common denominator between old and new works, it is the idea that becomes form, the metaphor that turns into matter. On her rugs, stories come to life in many forms, through words, colors, symbols. Exploring Caterina's work is like diving into her personal diary, full of images and stories.
In this case, however, it is not an anthology of other people's stories encrypted and yet to be deciphered, but the typing of a sincere laying bare of the artist's personal stories.
