The exhibition introduces two research projects that combine painting and drawing, sculpture and installation, exploring the scope and border areas of each. The look of the observer is one of the centers of attention in the exhibition, thought of as a sort of panorama.

The research of Sara Enrico revolves around painting and the potential of its related materials – oil color, canvas, frame. The artist chooses these elements for their physical qualities, exploring their possibilities and producing a wide range of forms, for which she uses both traditional media and digital processes. The painted canvas becomes a container and a cast, while oil color is often used as glue.
The passage from the status of the surface to that of volume takes painting to the level of sculpture, seen as a three-dimensional transcription of the eye’s movement over the painted surface. Impressed in plaster or concrete, the painting creates lens-shaped passages that are visible in the texture of the Pillows and Cactus, thick and covered with traces.
In Twins, Sara Enrico’s intervention on a wall of the exhibiting space, visibility goes hand in hand with concealment, suggesting a series of reflections that are expressed in the relationship between recto and verso, original and matrix.
