WORK TEMPORARILY NOT ON DISPLAY
With Non ho Tempo (I Have No Time), artist Josephine Sassu confronts the lithic nature of the Limbara, but from the granite boulders she frees the fantastic animals that populate her imaginary world with a light and childlike sign. This is an intervention with a very low environmental impact. The cave paintings are executed using water tempera that are intended to dissolve over time.
Josephine Sassu chooses rock painting to depict fantastic animals that populate granite boulders, revealing one of the constants of her research: the ephemeral, aesthetic and conceptual lightness of the work. Through a light and childlike sign, the artist frees the fantastic animals that populate her imaginary world.
