Cinzia Pellin

The women in Pellin's works are show and film stars or, often, fashion models.[1] But also simply “women”, unaware stars of our time, who have nothing to do with video cameras or glossy magazines, but are the protagonists of real life; the choice of their faces is determined by the femininity, sensuality, perseverance or pain coming from their glances.[2][1]

The detail of some glances painted on oversize canvases lets her suspended between the sweetness and violence of the contradictions of the time we are living.[2][1] She has recently developed two new concepts.[2][1] In the first, the face fades out thanks to play of shades, where it is only the eyes or the eyes and lips to stand out with bodily arrogance.[2][1] In the second, she has tried to develop a technique between painting and drawing, with signs of grease pencil on oil paints.[2][1]

Pellin's artistry is best expressed in these words, Cinzia Pellin from some time, is going on a course tending to analyze more and more closer the female universe: a way of inner temper, a kaleidoscope full of charm and enticement, a planet dissected in a myriad of splinters, that get near and far, in the endless play of existence.
