Valentina Cameranesi. Limitation of Life booklaunch

Limitation of Life is Valentina Cameranesi Sgroi’s first monograph. Structured along the lines of an auction catalogue, the volume, edited by Felix Burrichter, explores the inexhaustible ambiguity that defines the artist’s creative universe. Vases, chalices, coupes, carafes, and side tables unfold in a continuous stream of everyday yet enigmatic objects. In the artist’s hands and through her gaze, familiar materials such as glass, ceramic, and marble become living, unsettling matter: the solid appears liquid, the familiar becomes uncanny, and even the most ordinary object can be transformed into an unknown organism, seemingly originating from another world.
