VALERIA PESCE (Sardinia, Italy, 1963). “Quando l'acqua si fa densa,” 2026. Oil on linen, thick stretcher frame. Signed on the back. Certificate of authenticity included. Dimensions: 41x33x3.5 cm. The depiction of fish is one of the recurring motifs in Valeria Pesce’s work, whose paintings explore the relationships between nature, perception, and memory through a poetic sensibility. Suspended in aquatic spaces with undefined contours, the fish stand out for their vivid colors against backgrounds of delicate hues. The fluid brushwork, subtle transparencies, and free arrangement of the figures create a contemplative atmosphere, halfway between figuration and abstraction. She studied graphic design in Cagliari and New York, later living in Milan until she moved to Barcelona in 1991, where she currently lives and works. Self-taught, she works primarily with oil and acrylic, developing a pictorial exploration centered on perception, visual memory, and the processes of consciousness. She has exhibited her work in Spain, Italy, France, England, Germany, and Slovenia, and her paintings are part of private collections in Germany, the United States, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, England, New Zealand, Mexico, Japan, and Hong Kong.
