Linda Carrara
Linda Carrara (Bergamo, 1984) lives and works between Milan and Brussels. Her works consist of pictorial levels that differ in time, light, material and visual logic, which once layered and overlapped, generate apparently coherent and univocal worlds. While at first glance, her paintings seem to evoke and almost mimic the surrounding reality, it is only by approaching them – entering into a relationship with the pictorial surface – that hints and details of reality gradually lose their sharpness, turning into an abstraction of gestures, traces, manners and pictorial experiences. Poised between reality and fiction, Carrara questions the pictorial medium by showing it to be the subject of a figurative logic that calls on the material itself to transform into something else, thus opening it up to the imaginative and the incidental.
In 2006 she graduated at the Academy of Fine Arts of Brera, then she got an M.A. at the Kask School of Gent in 2014-2015 and in the same years she collaborated with Michaël Borremans as studio assistant.
