Jara Marzulli - Il cardellino

Oil painting on canvas, refined in the laying of color harmonies and expressive brushstrokes.

The work depicts a girl immersed in a dreamlike atmosphere where natural elements and a small goldfinch can be discerned, while her gaze almost interacts with the viewer, yet defending her own imaginary world.

With the artwork, the certificate of authenticity of the original work will also be shipped.

Jara Marzulli
Born in Bari, she graduated from the Bari Art High School and subsequently from the Bari Academy of Fine Arts with top marks, and since 1998 has participated in exhibitions and competitions, quickly earning recognitions, prizes and important selections.

Her figurative realist painting style becomes immediately recognizable, and since 2004 international experiences began through fairs, biennials, and important exhibitions.

Her art grows and tells of a sensibility that is at once ecstatic and carnal, made even more incisive and moving by the technical perfection that distinguishes the artist. A lucid and wrenching expressive quality, an indefinable purity that clothes itself in painting, a constant game of displacements, of role reversals between the artist who paints and the depicted subject.

Numerous are the prestigious biennials and art exhibitions at which she has exhibited in Italy and abroad, such as in Turkey, at Art Taipei, Taiwan, China at the Red Elation gallery, Hong Kong, at the MEAM Museum, Barcelona, Dublin, at the Mainz Museum, Buenos Aires in Argentina and in London.

The figures of Jara Marzulli have intense, direct, frontal gazes. They have the dignity of subjects ready to respond with great immediacy. The characters that almost fill the canvas space manage to visually represent men, women, girls and boys who seem to recognize the observer as a stranger, sustain their gaze, repel them, and move away to defend the silence of their precious inner world.
