Eva Marisaldi

Published to accompany an exhibition at PAC, Milan

Eva Marisaldi's eclectic production invites a closer look, asking the viewer to pay attention to the hidden aspects of our everyday lifeEva Marisaldi expresses herself by means of an eclectic, many-faceted artistic language, developed by alternating photographs, actions, videos, animations and installations with embroidery and drawing techniques. Her works feature a lyrical narrative vein and, though she is inspired by reality, her study focuses on the hidden aspects of our everyday life, analysing it through her way of making art. A playful process that penetrates the spheres of imagination and fantasy. Asking herself questions on topics such as dialogue and communication, Marisaldi investigates the possibility of a reflection that is both individual and collective within the exhibition area, relating with it in a precise, sophisticated manner. Thus Marisaldi's works don't have an immediate impact; her interventions, fairly complex and obscure, are marked by an initial feeling of disorientation, requiring viewers to reflect long and carefully as they observe the works closely.
