Rossella Biscotti, A shirt, blue pants, blue jeans, a towel, 2018
“I met contemporary art at the age of 23, but since I was a child I have always sought creative forms of expression, particularly in theater and cinema”.
With these words, Italian artist Rossella Biscotti (b. Molfetta, 1978) tells us about her beginnings in her homeland, Puglia and then in Napoli, where she studied and started her international artistic path. A path that in recent years has developed primarily in Asia and which, due to the COVID-19 lockdown, has forced her to return to her origins in Italy. Origins that she has never lost sight of: essential for artistic production, a place to which she dedicates some projects, including editorial ones.
The work of Biscotti is a combination of research, synthesis, and minimalism. It varies between mediums including performance, sculpture, installation, video and painting. It underlines the versatility of one who has traveled the world, between artist residences and the desire to discover new faces of reality.
