LINDA ANN CIPRIANI

Linda Ann Cipriani's  multidisciplinary practice originates from personal experience gained as a result of experimentation and appropriation.

She creates immersive installations, which give an overwhelming sense to the viewer, challenging them to navigate that space. She is interested in creating an aesthetic experience, which depicts the domination and visualisation of the images, that are saturating our daily life.

Given the excess of production and consumption in every field, she feels the urgency to produce something that is eye catching yet undefined and unstable which cannot be reproduced but can only be readapted.

Readaptation is an important process of her practice. She observes how technology shapes our perception and our relationship with space. Moreover, she uses it as a medium, which she  decontextualises and attacks. She is interested in its glitches and what cannot be achieved with it.

She expresses technology through the use of different materials, demonstrating the superficiality and failures that come from the Internet, through a dismantling, layering process and use of artificial colours.

While she looks at the connection between forms, surfaces, shapes and architecture, she takes pleasure in intervening in the space playing carelessly, while taking possession of the space. Part of her work aimed at challenging the idea of painting, considering that we are living in a digitalized era. Through disruption, playfulness and failure, she creates fragmented environments. The disruption and the willingness to challenge the materials, are always accompanied by a sense of humour.

Through an intuitive approach, she always introduces new elements that become part of the process itself, thus creating an endless cycle, where the elements like handcrafted objects, paintings and videos blend with each other and become part of a larger pictorial environment. An essential concept in her practice is ‘material equality’, which means treating all materials alike, irrespective of their quality.
