Collection: Abstract Tablescapes - Romancing the joy of life

This collection, gives body to Vanessa Ferriggi's sense of "Joie de Vivre" (joy of life). The use of bold colour, still life shapes and strong textures, "Abstract Tablescapes" - romancing the joy of life, celebrate summers with family and friends; immersions into the imagination.

Vanessa Ferriggi

“Frequenting the opera and live theatre enriched my imagination and desire to express. My need to paint comes from wanting to truly immerse in all life’s emotions, within a full and meaningful life. Sharing this with others and evoking a palpable response, is my passion.”

“Personally described as ‘Joie de Vivre’ (joy of life), this also aptly describes my art which is lively, exuberant and emotive. With a penchant for acrylic paints on canvas, I also incorporate mixed media with the use of impasto and oil sticks. Through this exhibition I have gleefully delved into exploring the genre of still life through semi-representational forms, using bold colours, ambiguous shapes and strong textures. I feel it is an evolution of self, moving towards positive and happy times, where life is light and joy abundant. Themes of emotion, identity, play and place are explored.”
