Patrizia Mussa, Teatri - Photopastels

"Patrizia Mussa, Teatri - Photopastels"

from Thursday, February 27, 2020 to Saturday, June 20, 2020

Galerie XII Paris

Specialized in architecture, Mussa photographs the theatres of Italy, which she considers not only as historic sites. She thinks of them as “open forms”, spaces transformed by time. Patrizia Mussa wants to capture the very essence of these places.

Since 2016, her work goes beyond simple photography. She uses pastel to enhance her prints, in a very subtle way. Thus reinterpreted in photopastels, as she calls them, her images go beyond reality. The artist proposes a personal and revisited reading, giving her own definition of theatre. Because the theatre is also a place of the imagination where dream and poetry coexist, colors allow her to imagine it as she would wish it has been, be, and remain.
