Month of Fear 2016

Here are my first two artworks for the first two weeks challenges of Month of Fear.

The first one is Secrets:
  

Her secret

2016,
ecoline and ink on paper,
8 x 12 cm.

I took inspiration from a Carlo Magno’s legend, in which he was in love with a beautiful princess, who was hiding a secret underneath her tongue (a magic ring). That ring was the real object of Carlo Magno’s love for the princess; infact he wanted to keep her next to him in his bed, even though she was dead. 

And here is the other illustration for the second week of Month of Fear: Wicked.

Wicked waters

2016,
indian ink and watercolors on paper,
10 cm of diameter

“Wicked” also means “sinful” and, recently, I had been reading an assay about women’s sins during the Medieval age and it deeply inspired me. The image shows a sinful woman underwater. 
Unfortunately, the original image was too large to be uploaded. You can find the circular version on my deviantart profile: http://teresashalott.deviantart.com/art/Wicked-waters-639670577

Hope you like them, have a good day! ^^

ResidenzAmbiente

From the 2nd to the 5th of June I've taken part in the residence project ResidenzAmbiente organized by Spazio Nadir , the gallery and book shop Mirror and the social cooperative Cooperativa Insieme for the festival Festambiente of Vicenza (VI - IT). During that period, I've lived and worked with other ten artists on an installation project: the installations have been carried out with recycled materials, which have been taken from the recycling center Ricicleria Ovest of Vicenza ( AIM Ambiente ). The final works have been exposed from the 14th to the 19th of June at Festambiente (VI - IT).

Here are some photos of my installation during Festambiente:
