Video:Nina Nasilli Exhibition
Review:
The ascetic way undertaken in the pictorial narration draws and gives us new truths, defining a human and interior landscape in which the faces have, now, the magical power of erratic boulders: eyewitnesses of an icy past and, however, the stone always alive. Ancient memory of earth and sky.

Review:
"The way to understand pictures and symbols etc. is not to try and interpret them, but to keep on looking until you see the light". Moreover: "Generally speaking, it is a way of exercising your intelligence through looking". Such are the words of Simone Weil as taken from the book Gravity and Grace. Having read it only recently, it seemed like a good idea to approach Nina Nasilli's paintings and drawings. The light Weil is talking about is the light that brings sense and meaning to things, but what we know about the writer, and her own words, make us aware that the unveiling produced by looking will be highly spiritual."
Sonia Cavicchioli
(I know that you are beautiful, soul of mine!)
(…) we feel that we shared an experience, and were allowed to enter the gates of someone else’s soul who, with reverence and excitement, invited us from the threshold to enter, not only, into the place where revelation of the sacred is possible, and which I believe she would like to leave to others, but also and especially all of its authentic manifestation.

Review:
Yet, Nina’s tale is one of evolution or rather it is an initiation path towards the necessary stages of self-conscience in order to be rooted in life, to affirm oneself (the multiple aspects of self) amid the diversity without succumbing or even identifying oneself in neither women nor men.

Review:
As rightly stated by the tower guard in “Faust”, we are living in a place “where we are born to see, but forced to watch”. This is the very cause of the artist rebellion; what generates the turmoil of lines and colours and the search of the evident visibility in things. Her work strives to reach the secret, invisible and hidden worlds that are inaccessible to the mere act of looking. Yet in her work they seem “almost” tangible as though, in proposing a different realty, she succeeded in “perceiving” what is missing.
