Gisella Biondani’s work balances the fluid nature of watercolour with the essential structure of calligraphy.
It results in interweaving forms which chase and complete each other and add vitality to her fresh and harmonious compositions. Her research is aimed at the abstraction of the form.
Every element of her compositions is brought to life by the fluidity of watercolour and the lightness of ink strokes. The calligraphic action is gestural, expressive; with a hidden meaning, hinted at by the letters running through the composition. Her spontaneous grace has deep artistic roots, perfected during years of study and experimentation. She trained as an illustrator and graphic designer. Her artistic practice merges the discipline provided by the design elements and principles with her personal poetic interpretation.
Gisella has participated in collective expositions, and has been featured in artistic publications.
She has an active teaching schedule and leads numerous workshops in Europe and the United States.
