Francesca Dalla Benetta, Italian artist , bronze “ Automa-CV19 “ 28 x 9 x 10 cm (HxWxD) – 1.5 kg
Serie of 6, Bronze, 2020
Automa-CV19 is a small androgynous bronze bust, with a displaced face.
The concept repeats a mask, but this time the mask does not hide a house, it IS the face. It is confused what it is and what it hides.
the face appears to be ripped and removed from its place, but it is still anchored to the head. It is more of a forward projection, and this is indicated by the serene expression of this little character.
It could be a robot from an Asimov tale
Francesca Play with the finishes: the head has an industrial and old look, while the face is smooth and shiny, of an antique gold polish.
Francesca Dalla Benetta was born in Florence, Italy, on August 18, 1977.
After a truncated career in Physics, she studied the Bachelor of Arts in the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera, Milan, graduating in 2003.
