Martina Cinotti

Martina Cinotti (b. 2000, Milan, Italy) graduated in Painting from the Academy of Fine Arts of Brera. She is represented by Lupo Gallery (Milan) and Pioneri Gallery (Skopje). Winner of numerous awards, her paintings are held in the collections of prominent art collectors.

Her painting becomes a space where the body is liberated from her own social gaze, allowing a neutral perspective where the skin becomes fluid and the boundaries of the body blur in relation to itself or to undefined spaces.

In her work, fragments of her body appear isolated in intimate moments of daily life: when she rests, when she is with a partner, when she takes a selfie, or simply when she is doing nothing. She sees her body as organic, uncontrollable, ever-changing part of nature. This vision translates into liquid veils of color, overlapping and sometimes outlined more distinctly to reveal a leg, an eye, or a belly.

Painting, in this sense, becomes a space where the body is liberated from her own social gaze, allowing a neutral perspective where the skin becomes fluid and the boundaries of the body blur in relation to itself or to undefined spaces.

The result is an invitation to explore subjective corporeality as a lived presence, rather than an object of observation.
