In her poetic approach, Beatrice Spadea creates elements that open up other dimensions, suspended between dream, fantasy, and poetry.
She reworks symbols deeply rooted in the collective imagination, such as branches, leaves, stars, and the cosmos, transforming them to stimulate reflection and lead into unexplored territories.
Each element contains an unsettling aspect that detaches from familiar reality, inviting exploration of new interpretations. In recent years, her work has focused on sensory crisis, exploring the disconnection from the perception of the natural world.
The crisis is not merely a decline in sensory abilities, but a void that separates from a reality that once defined, making it difficult to engage authentically with the world.
The forest, as both a physical and psychic space, is a central theme in her research, evoking mystery and the possibility of rediscovering oneself. Through simple materials like paper, wood, fabrics, and cotton threads, Beatrice creates elements that, while rooted in the imagination, interact with reality, prompting reflection on nature and the perception of the world.
