Sabina Feroci

(Florence, Italy, 1971)

Born in Florence, Italy, in 1971 Sabina Feroci lives and works in Carrara; she is an illustrator and creates sculptures in papier-mache. Between the end of the Nineties and the beginning of the Millennium she has collaborated with publishing houses and advertising agencies, while starting a number of collaborations with art galleries, both in Italy and abroad.

Even though she has involved herself more and more into sculpture in the last thirteen years, she has bridged an ideal gap between 3D paper figures and pictorial ones, delegating once to the latter and once to the former the task of investigating the emotions of that particular charachter, lived in his or her everyday life. The automatic gesture, the most sincere, links the language of the body to that of the soul and talks honestly of our brazeness or shyness, it talks about us. “Sabina Feroci’s art is that of sculpting emotions” (Paola Gennari, 2018).
