Anna & Elena Balbusso

In our work there is a clear reference to artists and paintings. The Italian art plays a key role in our work, it is an important source of inspiration but not the only. Every project is different, we do not work in series.There is not a specific art period but art in general, from Ancient Rome mural painting (frescoes at Pompeii), Italian Renaissance, Romanticism (prelude of modern art) Modern Art (symbolism, surrealism, Russian constructivism, Italian Futurism) and Contemporary Art. We use mixed media, traditional methods (acrylic, gouache, pencil, pen) were combined with digital programs, however we do not use the virtual paint brushes instead relying on doing all our brush stroke by hand with black gouache on paper. We work in many fields of communication with different styles: graphic style and painterly style.
