The artwork of Annamaria Russo reveals an ideological argument, or better, a challenge: every time man works on formless material, transforming it, he creates something marvellous, to be respected and even loved. This is true even when this transformation is born of consumerism and the waste of goods that nature has put at our disposal, because man will always use his ingenuity, putting into practice the mastery over creation to which he has been called.
So here is Annamaria Russo, collecting these waste materials, most recently her plexiglass, industry cast offs, and breathing her own spirit into it. And in her hands they are no longer waste destined to be reconstituted and become mere canvases, losing that nature, those colours that constituted a fragile identity, but rather become authentic works of art, demonstrating that material can live on as long as its natural perfection can be understood.
