PALETTE OF THE PALATE :: Art of Taste.
NAPA | ITALY Artist Penelope Moore transforms taste into dynamic and expressive large-scale abstract oil paintings and full production sensory installations to further explore the palate through immersive experiential exhibitions.
Penelope Moore is an established American painter from Napa Valley, California, now based in Italy. As an abstract expressionist with roots in the food and wine industry, Moore's passion lies at the intersection of art and taste; to express the truest essence of flavor on canvas, she creates a multi-sensory experience through the study of color, texture, and movement. In "Art of Taste" events in Italy, she conducts live painting sessions that interpret the palate from the palette, combining gastronomy and fine art.
Contemporary Artist Penelope Moore pushes the boundaries of sensory experience by fusing art and wine; innovating an entirely new form of abstract expression. She transforms taste into dynamic, large-scale abstract expressionist oil paintings onto canvas, an urban city mural and two street pianos. Her series, "Palette of the Palate" is a visual interpretation of the palate, exploring how color, texture and movement relate to the experience of taste. In the culinary world of wine, Penelope is an established Action Painter, where she paints LIVE during events as guests intermingle and taste what she is painting alongside her as she creates each work of art; confusing the senses and creating a new type of dialogue altogether. With her background in the food/wine industry, her creative interest expands beyond the canvas into exploring sensory, total immersive art + culinary experiences and understanding how the combining of the senses creates lasting memory impressions.
