About Emanuela Camacci

ARTFINDER AWARDS 2023 - ONES TO WATCH 2023

I was born in Rome (Italy) where I graduated in sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts and where I live and have my Art Studio. I have won several awards in International Sculpture Symposiums and international public competitions. My monumental sculptures are installed in Italy and abroad in public spaces and private collections.

Something more

Since my early childhood I have had the need to create an imaginary world, a world to explore, a world that would become real, through my hands. I still keep this ludic side and I love to dive in and feel the materials, explore their potentialities, playing with them.
I also like to think that my work nourishes and inspires a thought, curiosity and an attention to details, so that from a fragment, a texture of one of my works you can move on to observe a blade of grass, a flower, an insect.
I try to transfer the respect and love for nature, the attention to every detail and the analysis of its geometric and organic structure, both through the mainly natural materials I use and through the representation of an intimate and emotional dialogue I have with all living forms, and in particular with the floral universe, as well as with inanimate forms such as rocks. Infact my works are inspired by nature, physical and emotional experiences including humor and sensuality and the representation of urban landscapes I live in.

I love to experiment with the expressive possibilities of materials, such as wood, stone, clay, and very often it is the same materials that I sometimes collect in nature, to suggest to me which path and expressive language to take. My works made directly on site, in urban areas or in natural environment, are often composed of several elements and in relation to the place and space they occupy change in meaning. Lastly, I would like every viewer to experience a real sensorial journey through one of my works on a perceptive and emotional level.
