The Artist
Francesca Ferreri’s work is linked to the practice of restoration, which the artist turns to for its creative and imaginative potential without any interest in its philological application. The reference to conservational activity is justified by her experience as a restorer of frescos, which she began to develop while still at the academy, and which influenced her ensuing approach to sculpture and drawing.
Restoration is investigated most of all for its likeness to the process of the reactivation of memories, which because of their temporal distance are always partial, never regained entirely if not with additions, removals and alterations. [...]Related artworks
