Street Art
Due to her traveler attitude, Alice’s preferred canvases are city walls. The Roman artist, both a street artist and painter, as well as an illustrator and set designer, has developed different threads in her research, from narrating feminine vitality to manipulating the three-dimensional possibilities of her work. She moves from urban explorations to installations using found materials.

B-Road
When: From March 25th to April 05th, 2023
Where: Medina Art Gallery – Via Merulana 220, Rome.
Pasquini’s project B-Road results from a journey to those places where life slows down and goes back to the streets. B-Roads are secondary paths, a suburban parallel universe where lives and communities meet more than in main streets where everything homologates.
Picture the road as the metaphor for the life path. In that case, the secondary road amplifies the sense of a personal journey in which digressions, changes of route, and loopholes are necessary.
Many works of unprecedented interest in energy, intensity, and fullness are on display.
Among these is the artificial nest, designed to house and protect birds engaged in the delicate stages of nesting and brooding. It becomes hope and shelter for humans: a place of passage and a crossroads from which to start again. Pushing us deeper, the lightness of the moment cannot avoid the memory of the migration and the precariousness of all the human communities that cannot find shelter.
