Francesca Cittadini

Francesca Cittadini, trained in architecture and a self-taught passion for drawing, uses watercolor, oil, and acrylic in her paintings. Her pictorial research focuses on the representation of human interiority, its complexity, and its origins. Her artistic production focuses primarily on portraiture, reinterpreted in a contemporary way. Her works deconstruct faces, balancing compositional rigor, chromatic sensitivity, and an elegance that blends density of form with attention to space. Her artistic output is influenced by her travels, where different cultures and realities are represented in deconstructed forms that recall instinctive, almost archaic traits. Through visual fragmentation, she aims to reveal the tension between the intimate and the superficial, conveying to the viewer delicacy, intensity, and a profound emotional exploration.
