Figurativo Segreto
Figurativo Segreto - Melissa Barbanti
from 9th to 23rd March 2025
Cervia, Magazzino del Sale-Torre
curated by Greta Zuccalli - Hub/Art
The title of the exhibition, ‘Figurativo Segreto’ (Secret Figurative), encompasses the essence of Melissa Barbanti's work, an art that lies on the borderline between figuration and abstraction. If at first glance her works may seem suspended in an ethereal and indefinite dimension, looking at them with greater depth reveals recognisable forms, human and animal references that emerge from the pictorial material, like fragments of a subtle and mysterious narrative.
The artist constructs a personal visual alphabet, made up of signs, symbols and visions that manifest themselves through the contrast between light and shadow, between the deep black of the background and the chromatic vibrations. Hers is an intimate and layered language, which does not reveal itself immediately, but invites the audience to immerse themselves in the work, to explore its details, to decipher hidden messages.
