The artist: Marika Vicari
Marika Vicari is a contemporary Italian artist who explores the relationship between humanity and nature through images of trees, forests, and rarefied landscapes. Using graphite, watercolor, and supports such as paper and wood, she creates essential compositions in which the landscape becomes a metaphor for memory, fragility, and human experience.
Description
In Altrove, Marika Vicari creates a silent landscape through delicate lines and natural elements reduced to their essence. The trees seem to emerge and, at the same time, dissolve into space, creating a suspended and undefined dimension.
The forest is not merely a physical place, but becomes an inner landscape. The lightness of the lines and the rarefied atmosphere evoke memories, sensations, and traces of places that seem to belong as much to reality as to memory.
The title Altrove—meaning “Elsewhere”—suggests precisely this sense of distance: an undefined place, perhaps real or perhaps imagined, toward which the viewer’s gaze is drawn. Nature thus becomes a space for reflection and contemplation, capable of expressing the fragility of human presence.
Conclusion
Altrove captivates through its ability to transform the forest into an intimate and suspended space, where nature, memory, and imagination meet. Discover this work in the exhibition Vivere l’estinzione at PUNTO SULL’ARTE Gallery in Varese and immerse yourself in the poetic world of Marika Vicari.
