Immortality

"Complex landscape, contrasted to extreme, of light and shadow, haunted by memory, conscious but most likely unconscious, this irresistible attraction since the dawn of time, love and more - a Northern fascination with the South."

Richard Makin-Poole, Melba Ruffo, Alessandra and Alessandro Zoppi

Maria Novella dei Carraresi

Olga Spanio di Spilimbergo, Beatrice Racine and Adele Re Rebaudengo

"From the land of mist, pristine whiteness, shattered here and there by flashes of blue, grey and pink; intangible continent, shifting, elusive and clear, populated by ghostly shadows, heavy snow skies, the painful and brittle cold, who, one day at dawn every day, dreams of a wonderful elsewhere."

Jane Rushton and Josefina Alzetta

Pamela Berry, Morella Morelli and Alessandra Pianon

Grazina Subelyte, Sigrid Gloerfeldt and Karole Vail

"While sitting at the edge of an ocean of foam listening to the immemorial silence, she closes her eyes. Arises the dream. The sun, which sprays the wards, the heat, the humidity, the smells of spices and musk, dust dotted with gold, the color of days, the color of nights…"

"This ancestral dream… Sigrid Gloerfeldt is now the messenger. She is the heiress of this immemorial fantasy. Moreover her land is not. It is in her, to the depths of her soul, her being. She wears her world and with her brushes and her words, creates and shares it, fog and wind, landscape with heady scents.
How to create a world of fire and ice without self destruction. That is Sigrid Gloerfeldt’s quest, baladin and poetry of the abyss."
