THE OTHERS FAIR, 2014 BI-BOx ART SPACE

October 2014, Turin, Italy

From the 6th to the 9th of November some new drawings on maps will be exhibited at The Others Fair (Turin/Torino), stand A16-A18, for BI-BOx Art Space gallery, directed by Irene Finiguerra.
Artists represented: Francesco Casolari, Foto Marvellini, Alessandra Maio, Opiemme

It is a strong fascination with the sky that brings Opiemme to reflect on the great interdependence between man and cosmos, and to deepen a knowledge, that was once empirical, of a sky that gave life and advice. At the beginning of 2014 the artist created a series of works on canvas titled “Vortex” and “Irradiation“. These are passionate works that mix different emotions and create an aesthetic deconstruction of the words and letters.

Here is a little preview of these new works.

Butterfly, 2014
35×50, spray on paper
exhibited in Setup Fair 2014 (Bologna) with BI-BOx Art Space (Biella)

A work inspired to Arrigo Boito’s “Dualismo”

“I am light and darkness; angelic
Butterfly or filthy vermin
I am a fallen cherub
Damned to roam on earth,
Or a rising demon,
Exhausting his wings,
To a far away sky […]”
