MANUELA GALLO

Manuela Gallo is a contemporary painter who lives and works between Calabria and Versilia.
Her expressive research is made of saturated colors and a strong interest in the human figure. Gallo manages to capture, in her paintings, the beauty of everyday life, the typical gestures of women and men intent on their usual activities, stolen images to show us the enchantment hidden behind normality.

Her works develop into collections depending on the themes addressed by the artist, such as "The first summer", "Sport icons" or "Waiting room". The concept of waiting is widely represented by Gallo; all her figures, in fact, seem suspended, operating in that period of time that precedes the action. This feeling intrigues the painter a lot, it is in fact in this moment that we shape the future, reflecting on what we are, what we have been, what we would like to be.
