The Passage

The concept of transit, change, and inner evolution finds its ultimate visual expression in “The Passage”, the intense exhibition by artist Angela Menchise. This exhibition project unfolds as a truly introspective and sensory journey, guiding the viewer beyond the boundaries of the visible.

Angela Menchiseis a biologist and artist with a focus on the abstract and a world that seeks to be undefined in form yet attentive to detail in colour. She participates in numerous solo and group exhibitions: in Potenza, at the Palazzo della Cultura e del Turismo, she presents a dialogue between abstract and softened figurative elements using a palette knife and acrylics on canvas; in Matera, at Fideuram Bank, with “The Confrontation Between the Two Suns”; also in Matera with ModArt, as part of Felicia Curci’s project “Women in Transformation” at Palazzo Malvezzi Malvinni; and in Milan, the group exhibition “From Venus to Bacchus” at Galleria M.A.C. Her work is textural, immersing itself in shades of blue and yellow – the colour of joy, warmth, and life – which reflects with gold and ochre when the canvas is illuminated by a floor lamp in the late afternoon. The artist describes herself as a dreamer with a desire to reach and move the observer every time, tirelessly.

The inauguration will be held on Saturday, 14 March at 17:30, and will be enriched by a poetry reading by Angelo Raffaele Grande, accompanied by a live painting performance by the artist.
