Laurina Paperina
1980, Born in Rovereto. Lives and works between Mori (Trento-Italy) and Duck Land (??)
"I play with the art.
My work is an ironic elaboration of the contemporaneity and on the identities
which compose it. Elaboration which is born synthetizing a language
where diversity and contradiction join and where he affects him
from the Internet culture and of tvs,
some strip cartoons and some Games displays, of the science fiction
and the Cartoons, produce a complex set of elements which turn into
an obvious chaos but they let some recognizable forms glimpse themselves.
The personalities of my jobs are so painted irony
and they are fruit of my fantasy, they are dynamic forms and gaudy colours
of a kind of "Virtual Reality" such to a Games display where the pretence
and the appearance play simulating the reality.
In synthesis my work is a precise ironic game on my experiences
which a purpose does not have well if not that to represent
the thought diversities and as these can coexist,
as if every element was an indispensable fragment of a Puzzle."
