The artist presents herself as the goddess of a new female mythology. At the MACRO in Rome from 19 September. Sissi creates remarkably captivating works whose shapes inspired by the organic world invade the space, conjuring up a dreamlike, highly sensual universe linked to her own experiences.
In her solo exhibition at the MACRO, Sissi presents a performance-installation with her body as the protagonist in a fantastic landscape that she made by hand, interweaving wicker, reeds and thin strips of blotting paper tinged with colourful inks. Sensual enveloping forms characterize this young Bolognese artist's imaginative approach. Rome, 2004.
