Resi Girardello

Overview
Resi Girardello
Resi Girardello is an Italian artist born in Vicenza, Italy. She graduated in Painting and Sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice. In 2005, after a six-month scholarship at Middlesex University in London, she obtained a master's degree in Visual and Performing Arts at the Venice Academy. You explore the ways of Sculpture and Installations, addressing scientific topics such as "Gaia Theory" by J. Lovelock. You cross science, mythology and society with an ironic approach. Many of her recent works of art are on permanent display on the ships "Costa Luminosa" and "Costa Deliziosa". You live between Venice and Berlin. For a few decades, she has dedicated herself to an extraordinary feat, rewriting the world through copper wires woven in the traditional feminine technique, crochet. With that tiny thread she throws leaves, fish, flowers, architectures, human figures in the air, in artistic creations that are both fragile and tenacious at the same time.
 
Since the beginning of her career, Resi Girardello has wondered about the world of nature and the great themes of science: the living microstructures of the universe, infections transmitted by microorganisms (yes, pandemics), global warming. You translate all of this into suggestive installations, precious also because they are capable of involving, with their visual wonder, an audience that otherwise would not be able or willing to digest the ponderous treatises, tables and formulas of the scientists, but who can find here the their starting point access.
