FROM
Pisa, Italy
Ginevra Giovannoni, aka Rame13, was born in Pisa in 1989. She owes her love for art to her painter grandfather. After obtaining a degree in Philosophy and a diploma from the Academy of Visual Arts, he began collaborating with various realities, approaching street art. She began her artistic career as an urban artist, participating over the years in various national and international projects and festivals, but she soon became a multifaceted artist who ranges from urban art, illustration, graphics and tattoo. His art is figurative in the consistency of the forms, abstract in the relationships between human beings, animals and plants that inhabit his works, suspended in a unique and fantastic imagination. His subjects develop and run on different supports, from walls to paper, from canvas to leather.
"Mezzojuso: Byzantine identity"
The Albanian identity of Mezzojuso has been able to keep alive over time a tradition of profound devotion to Byzantine iconography. The town, in which two different Christian cults coexist, still today preserves an enormous heritage of sacred icons which highlights an indissoluble and lasting bond between past and present. The artist, in this work, portrays Christ, in the blue and red of his robe, in the two suns above and in the open book which confirms his being “The Word”, he turns his eyes to those who look at him blessing . The attempt to transform a religious icon into an identity symbol was successful: Rame13’s project is aimed at the eyes of the people of Mezzojuso, it does not want to be a theological work, but a tribute to the feelings of a people, who recognize in this iconography your own identity.
