E in questo chiaroscuro nascono i mostri.

In her latest work, through fresco painting, Ginevra Petrozzi dreams of impermanence while conspiring with time. Pigments crystallise into wet lime, embedding themselves into the wall and destined to endure, under a patina of its own making. Frescos are not just a painting technique; they take the form of a temporal model. They stage time in their transformation, and in their accumulation of layers, keeping trapped underneath their skins the original drawing.
Curator Yannik Guldner asked the participating artists of his exhibition The Ground Is Shifting to reflect on instability, change, and the end(s) of the world.
