STATEMENT
In her practice, Fè delves into the intricate dynamics of contemporary life, translating the present into pop-conceptual art. She describes her method as "The contemporary chewed and digested," where reflections on today's world morph into visual stimulators rooted in pop culture.
Her art traverses themes of diversity, emotional connections in a pandemic-stricken world, and humanity's de-evolution alongside technology. Environmentally conscious, Fè's work also critiques anthropocentrism and microplastic pollution. Driven by a commitment to social justice, she uses her art as a medium for civil rights advocacy.
Fè approaches each project with an open mind, exploring various techniques such as concrete casting, resin work, upholstery, ceramics, CAD modeling, and 3D printing.
