The artist

Franca Lavorato was born in Corigliano Calabro and lives in Pavia. She began to paint at the end of 2013, at the age of 53, and after a first period as a self-taught painter she trained at the Accademia di Brera and in Houston.

In her paintings the surreal blends with the dreamlike, telling of the constant struggle between the forces that move the human soul. Figures and colours reach the canvas in a single impulse and reveal themselves only to a careful eye.
