Rossella Faraone (Rome, 1969), an eclectic artist, sculptor, painter, designer, and fine jewelry designer, demonstrated an innate talent for drawing and painting from an early age. After graduating as a Master of Arts and training at the Academy, she opened her own studio and artistic foundry in 1990. She creates a unique, three-dimensional, and textured technique that has been imitated worldwide. She combines painting and sculpture using enamels, gems, and precious metals to create her "pittosculture" (a term she coined). With an artistic career spanning over 35 years, she loves to retreat to her studio, striving for perfection and elegance with her unmistakable style. Each piece is handmade. Her work is included in public and private collections.
“She had the strength, the talent, and the indispensable qualities to transform these precious stones and metals, through the exercise of her will, into “pigments” for a genre of painting that can seem like a real gamble, a kind of challenge.” – Gérard George Lemaire.
