We are extremely excited to present Italian artist 𝗠𝗲𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗮 𝗧𝗼𝗺𝗮 as part of the gallery’s roster.

For her first solo exhibition in 𝗠𝗲𝘅𝗶𝗰𝗼 𝗖𝗶𝘁𝘆, she reflects on the interconnectedness of all life forms in the material world. The rise of posthuman philosophies has forced us to reckon with the expanding definition of our 𝘣𝘰𝘥𝘪𝘭𝘺 𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘢𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘴, which has revealed 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘮𝘦𝘢𝘣𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘭𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 as constants. In this new suite of paintings, the artist explores the body as a 𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘴 𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘴𝘺𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘮 that undergoes exchanges to ensure its vitality.
