“Anna Maria Tanzi reveals herself sparingly, allowing herself mostly long periods of reflection and execution. Her works take shape from the vision of reality, the observation of a fact, or someone’s words. At the origin of her artistic practice lies an intuition. The subject must be deeply felt, the choice of expressive means carefully considered, and the technique of execution tested and made her own, never remaining the same. These are the reasons for the long time frames.
The ethereal forms of her watercolours, the human figure always mediated, as if to suggest the difficulty of truly knowing. Abstraction composed of objects arranged in space according to rigorous yet difficult-to-read patterns. Phrases charged with meaning that become cryptic through the simple arrangement of letters. Embroidery, and everything associated with it, becomes an image of itself and/or of all that constitutes the meaning of the feminine... Can we say that she follows different lines of research? In a sense, yes. But there is a very strong connection between seemingly distant works: a clear attempt to transform vision (which pertains to sight) into observation (which pertains to the intellect), in order to involve the viewer in her reflections.” CZP
