Maria Lai, who studied in Venice under Arturo Martini, one of the greatest European sculptors of the 20th century, is one of the most important artists of her generation. Her creations, ranging from graphics to every kind of plastic form, continually alternate new techniques to produce handmade items in many forms, but her hallmark visual, stratified universe remains unmistakable. Accompanied by the voice of the Sardinian artist, her paintings, carved landscapes, textile stage designs and drawings are revealed by a fluid, delicate and inventive use of video and music. This is an investigation into the life and evolution of a creativity never short on ideas, whose modernity is still spectacularly vibrant today.
