About The Artwork

Trasformazioni is a bronze sculpture of a chubby man with many flowers. The title means Transformation, in Italian. In the artist conception, transformation begins from inside out. In this piece, flowers are the symbol of the change, and the fact they origin from books and from the head of the character, means that change origin from knowledge, especially from self knowledge. To transform means to deep understanding oneself and to take a conscious choice to twist one’s life, making into something different and renewed. The calm expression of the man’s face refers to acceptance beyond self judgment. This piece has a black and green patina, the classical bronze colors. The black patina is made from the green one, after a burning process, so magical and mystical. This piece is part of a serie of 6, and the patina (colors) can vary a little from piece to piece (I always try to make them the most similar, but part of the beauty of patinas is exactly their uniqueness).

STATEMENT: Francesca Dalla Benetta's work is characterized by mixed anatomies and forms. Human faces and bodies are combined with different textures, skins and elements, giving rise to hybrid beings. Through her aesthetics, in balance between the classic and the surreal, the artist studies the themes of transformation, sense of belonging and self-perception, the ability to adapt, stereotypes and categorization. She searches for the fine line that separates personal identity from social conventions, sanity from madness, studying the differences between perception and reality. Francesca's figures are a look inward and out of control, they are a way of containing the uncontainable. The stories of each character, isolated in an intimate and unreal dimension, are reflections on the identity of misfits and the many facets of being. As an artist, her most important task is to communicate and stimulate a different way of feeling and thinking. She mainly resorts to sculpture because it is a lasting solidity in contrast to the volatility of the mind.
