Biography
"(...)The stiff architecture, the light-filled corners, the sharp shadows, the pictorial mannerism are the lexis created by this artist who, at the centre of her personal quest, sets space. Space in the sense of a dwelling place, on which the eye rests, and from which it absorbs the energy left behind like a sign that reveals the passing of mankind. Time, which is frozen in sharp, sometimes cold, snapshots, after some moments incredibly comes alive in the peopling of impalpably slow and silent figures. Among the locations most photographed and then re-worked by Saviano, there are corridors, stairways, landings, since these probably re-emerge in her imagination as places of unsettled movement, rapidly exploited, momentary almost meteoric crossing points. Undoubtedly, this particular peculiarity springs from a profound analysis of contemporary society, built as it is on interpersonal relationships that have been cut to the bone: few words, few glances, little involvement. By empting the structures of their innards, she makes architecture a metaphor for a world which continues to create receptacles, but can never find the time to concretely experience them."
