BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES

Francesca Vimercati (2000) and Rebecca Diegoli (2001) are both graduates of Graphic Art from the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan.

Francesca Vimercati studied at the Abate Zanetti furnace in Murano. This experience, combined with her academic studies, deepened her knowledge of different ways of working with glass, such as the lampworking technique and glass fusing.

After her academic diploma, Rebecca Diegoli continued her studies at the Milan Polytechnic, specializing in Communication Design. During her studies, she approached the fields of Graphic Design and Web design, experimenting with different programming languages.

ARTWORK IN CONTEST

Fragile, 2024

SCULPTURE - Silkscreen prints on cold-worked aluminium sheet, aluminium adhesive tape, blown glass
25 x 25 x 25 cm

Fragile, the work by Rebecca Diegoli and Francesca Vimercati is characterized by a stringent metaphor. If the casing, an emblematic cube, appears rigid and severe (this time, the aluminium assumes the function of container and covering, underlined by the symbolic silk-screen prints on its surface), the interior is a crystal box that can break at every impact, alluding perhaps to the fragility of human nature.
