Paola Maddalena artist.
Paola Maddalena was born in Rome, where she lives and works- who declares herself - "architecht by choice, artist by nature" - has a particular passion for the "wall", a physical element usually used to delimit architectural spaces. Drawing inspiration from the creative potential offered by the lightweight concrete blocks he uses on interior construction sites, he defines his work as "Wall Art" because he is constantly looking for a new sense to give to this material: the wall is transformed into a sculptural element of furniture following the insertion, in the construction phase, of sculptured and finished blocks. Daughter of art, with a training aimed at finding the beauty and proportions - which he pursues both in architecture and in his artistic expressions - has inherited love and passion, art in all its forms and after having expressed his creativity through the use of conventional painting techniques on supports such as tables, canvases and walls, has shifted his attention to the creation of three-dimensional works, sculptures born from the desire to reinterpret a material so usual in construction, as innovative and experimental in sculpture, as lightened concrete.
Among the events and exhibitions in which he participated, we note: Personal exhibition Wall Art between sky and sea of July 2017 at the Bastione di Cervo (IM), sculptures dedicated to nature, women and freedom. Also in 2017, one of the sculptural works of Maddalena was donated to the annual winner of the Strega Prize, Paolo Cognetti.
