Ilaria Abbiento

Ilaria Abbiento is a visual artist.

Her research, focused on the theme of the sea, starts from a deep introspective immersion to build a poetic narrative investigating her inner ocean. The artist, who expresses herself essentially through photography, elaborates hes works using material elements in relation to the images, sometimes dotted with poetic and literary texts, studies site-specific installations and also works with video.

Her artistic practice explores the landscape, reveals geographies of thought, imaginary cartographies from which the islands of her internal archipelago emerge. Her photographic images, colored in soft colors, evoke the suspension of time and return the vision of a lyrical gaze on the outside world. Her studio is an observatory on the sea, a fluid and allegorical element of existence, of which she observes movement, change, tempera and temperature.

In the sea she is continually lost to find herself.
