PROVIDED WITHOUT FRAME


The artist Lucia Mignosa, in art named Luminisa,

during the classical studies that the 1960s imposed, thanks to the whimsical teachings of a history of art professor, I knew and fell in love with that colorful world of beauty to which I have remained faithful and fascinated for life. But only subsequently, finding by chance in my hands a creative magazine of the era, lived as a window into the artistic world, following their guide, I began to create objects to admire, ranging from art to fashion to objets d’art, in the perpetual search and attempt to express with art enthusiasm and joy as a hymn to life. The explosion of pleasure in creating, experimenting, and persevering in seeking the maximum expression of beauty, pushed me, despite family and work commitments and the difficulties that the 70s promised to a woman, to attend the studies of renowned but Sicilian masters of the era, to learn as much technique and experience as possible, without ever losing that single weekly appointment that made me drive 70 km to reach him. And it is by letting myself be inspired and carried by their excellence that I refine my views and perfect the technique, reaching my expressive splendor in Luminisa, my stage name, of a life devoted to the playful world of cheerfulness, freshness and luminosity that is realized in the extreme representation of water games and bodies suspended in time in a playful preamble to cheerfulness. A sensibility, that today I express in painting, sculpture and engravings, that have a very precise task: to translate into broad visions of play and moments of meditation and ecstasy a meaningful reality that has always resided in me.. Bold tones, fiery, apparatuses of artistic gymnastics, hoops in the water, promote the concept of my emotions, carriers of a playful, conspiratorial and artistic mood of my eternal serene temperament..
