Rosita D'Agrosa (1989) graduated in painting from the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence. At the end of her artistic training, she also obtained a scholarship at the Il Bisonte Foundation for lithography and graphic art. During his academic years, she participated in several artistic residencies in Spain, specifically in Cordillera, Lleida and Artes by Mount. Her artistic research is a continuous exploration that combines painting, graphics and textile experimentation rooted in her family history. These techniques serve as a medium and language in her work, building a bridge between poetry and the textile industry. D'Agrosa's poetry highlights a personal and intimate feminine dimension, the result of a rigorous study of the female body and an analysis of the changes to which every human being is subjected. She currently lives and works in Florence.
“Art for an artist can be a tool of communication and language through which to break taboos, preconceptions and stereotypes, especially those that unfortunately still survive in the female universe. This is exactly what I try to do in my work: break down walls, use art as a tool of expression, freedom, dialogue, storytelling and testimony.”
