There is something stirring, painful even, in Emanuela Crotti’s works. They are beautiful and at the same time sometimes difficult to look at. This difficulty might be because of the complexity of her technique, because of the several layers and patterns which she somehow manages to put together, but most likely, they are hard to look at because they are full of life, and life is hard, beautiful, but hard. Emanuela Crotti’s journey in the art world begun with painting, exhibiting in Paris at 16 and winning prizes at 18. She followed different artistic currents – figurative, abstract, minimalism, zen – but its only with her latest works, where resins meet photography, graphics and material collages, that she feels she has actually found her style.
