Towards the surface

The painting was created for the solo exhibition “Contrasti. In equilibrio instabile” (Contrasts. In unstable equilibrium), held in August 2025 at the Torre Malaspina in Fosdinovo (MS). The artwork depicts a surreal landscape in which the imposing peak of Pizzo d’Uccello, one of the most distinctive peaks of the Apuan Alps, has sunk and a swimmer makes her way to the surface, a symbol of tenacity and the desire to improve.
