Chiara Taddeucci Sassolini’s art is a deeply personal exploration, diverging from classical and contemporary trends. Her creations, akin to Art Brut or Outsider Art, vividly portray intense emotional states, unconventional concepts, and intricate fantasy realms. Rooted in solitude and genuine evocative impulses, her works reflect a profound connection to the fashion world and its accessories. Especially evident in her paper pieces, Chiara seeks to unveil the intrinsic meaning of objects from this glamorous yet transient profession. Delving into the essence of these items, she contemplates their natural fading over time and, when no longer in vogue, transforms them into new life and identity within an artistic dimension.
Fragments of fabrics, accessories, shiny buttons and clasps, metallic papers with silver reflections gather in Chiara Taddeucci Sassolini’s collages on paper or wood, forming, on those monochromatic supports, like drifting continents, islands of utopia, bouquets of flowers, less gestural and swirling compared to the canvases in their informal balance. A multi-material kaleidoscope of fragmentary things and colors, like mosaic tiles with vibrant and radiant hues in a “mosaical” fashion, a combination of a colorful informal mosaic and a suspended musical sonority between jazz syncopations and dodecaphonic elements. It is no coincidence that Chiara often listens to music, especially from the 16th century, while creating, in a dynamic counterpoint with jazz, in order to free her own spirit, always oscillating between heartfelt existential reflection and ecstatic creative moments, between stillness and dynamism.
