Angela
Caporaso's art has always been characterized by a constant research and
experimentation.
Since her
first exhibitions she has revealed a constant strain towards new expressive
languages.
This
constant research led Angela to contaminate sign with colour, font with image,
literature with painting, as though one single medium was not sufficient to
express her complex imaginative world.
She has
worked on the words of the main contemporary writers and has dedicated some of
her exhibitions to Albert Camus, Emily Dickinson, Pier Vittorio Tondelli.
Influenced
by Pop Art, she has inserted in her works the typical comics “bubbles”, as well
as advertising references, decontextualized and transformed into a proper
artistic language.
She has
worked with unrecyclable waste material, humble and inert, which has acquired
new sense and meaning thanks to the artist’s intervention.
