Angelica Bergamini – Follow the Thread

Cross-cultural studies and an interest in philosophy and psychology guide the artistic research of Angelica Bergamini, intersecting aesthetic and ethical values. She considers her work as a visual poem, thus conceiving art as a bridge between contemplation and action and her work as an act of meditation on the quest for balance between the inner and outer worlds. Interested in the world of the archetype and the energy that emanates from it, she questions what lies beyond the conscious mind, living her artistic research as an exploration of the reservoir of knowledge that the unconscious represents and researching the relationship between the personal and collective unconscious. She relies on imagery and practice, rather than theory, to create a connection between the unconscious and the conscious mind, in search of a holistic view of the self and the world. The choice of thread is both technical and conceptual: for “Clouds” she used a material that could evoke the visual presence of the untouchable consistency of the natural element and its mutability in the light.
