Federica Gabrielli | 24 Oct 2026 | Rome Art Week

Federica Gabrielli Open Studio

I paint women, but I tell stories of souls. Faces to reflect on, to be moved by, to find yourself in. Come see yourself in a canvas and take a little piece of my art home with you!

Every face I bring to canvas stems from the desire to preserve something invisible: a fragility, a strength, a story, a memory, a part of ourselves that we sometimes forget to look at.

My works are meant to be mirrors. Not simple portraits, but places where we can stop, recognize ourselves, be moved, and perhaps rediscover, through the gaze of another woman, something of ourselves.

During my Open Studio, I will open the doors of my space and paint live, allowing the public to enter not only my studio, but also my creative process. It will be an opportunity to observe up close how a work is born, listen to the stories that inspire it, and share an authentic moment, without filters.

I will particularly welcome all women who wish to come closer, talk to me, share their stories, or simply let their emotions flow through them while observing my works. It's not necessary to have something to say: sometimes a look, a memory, a feeling is enough. Art can become a delicate way to connect, even without words.

 I'd love for everyone to find, among my faces and colors, a small fragment of themselves. A forgotten, desired, loved, or yet-to-be-discovered part.

And so that this encounter can continue beyond the doors of the studio, no one will leave empty-handed: each person who comes to visit me will receive a small artistic gift, a fragment of my art to take home with them.

Because art, for me, is not just something to look at.

It's something we can identify with, something that can touch the soul and, for a moment, make us feel deeply seen.

Come meet my women.

Perhaps, among them, you'll recognize yourselves.
