Margherita Paoletti's solo exhibition "Florilegio" at Tublà da Nives aims to investigate the research of the young artist - born in Fabriano in 1990 - starting from the beginnings, related to engraving techniques, to the most recent pictorial works based on the relationship between the female body, conceived as an organic container that encloses life, dreams, desires, memories and experiences, and the natural
landscape.
For most of hers, the initial cue is the minimal silhouette of a female body or face, silhouettes that are obscure in that they often inhabit a monochromatic background that provides no further information about the subject, but not therefore devoid of clarity or impact. The elements within the bodies - a springtime of flowers, plants, warm colors and symbols, as opposed to the subject-container, are richly elaborated in squiggles of nature embedded within each other and on multiple levels, emphasizing the greater impact and fecundity of one's inner paradise than the outer world.
The intersection of these themes also gives rise to more experimental projects, such as the site-specific installation designed for Tublà's glass room, or like the body of works on paper "Sonde Croniche" premiered for the exhibition. With "Chronic Probes," the artist creates a fantastical alter ego named Lea, a contemporary warrior struggling to maintain the delicate balance between interiority and exteriority.
