How can we look beyond the superficiale aspect if, day by day, we conform to the tapestry of our sofa? Each of us in this society, seems to play a defined role, a role that deletes peculiarities in favor of uniformity, losing our intimate sense of existence. It is not always easy to be ourselves, to take off the mask someone else imposes on us. But sometimes we try to oversome these limits, because of anger or fatigue or who knows why, just to show ourselves as we really are. Without the mask. The urgent need to show differently from what people think, restores, gives the strenght to overcome barriers but, if from one side it is origin of vitality, from the other makes way to sufference. Will those surrounding us understand who we really are? Will they classify us as they prefer once again? There is no solution. Just risk.
It is the struggle of life. Of each life. More or less, everyone has to step out from his own world to rank, leaving that tapestry surrounding our ordinary life and that, little by little, drives to our demise identifying ourselves in it.
Chiara Polizzi, through her canvas, deals with the subject of double of Pirandello, thinking on how society, politics, culture, family could swallow us, turning ourselves into a tiny patricle of a faint entirety.
Her painting is solid, aggressive, biting but in the same time veiled and irregular. Her characters tell something of her and celebrate her as she wanted to. They all shout at the world who they really are. Without the mask they have nothing to be afraid of. Showing themselves naked to the world they can affirm themselves for who they really are, with their abilities and their sincere flaws. They stop to be characters to be human beings again.
The young artist uses portraits to unveal secrets hidden in every single portion of face. Impetuous, sweet, lifeless, curious faces mixed to the background, becoming an imperceptible entirety. Building a contrast between face and background that destabilizes who is watching, not recognizing the most important character from the rest. It is a game of colors, Baroque texture, scratches and brush strokes to unveal misteries that each one of us has inside.
The work of Chiara Polizzi, then, focus on a brave but unsolvable research, but surely through them, she tries to suppress her mask, to show, eventually, for what she sincerely is.
