Art, by its very nature, has been imbued with intuition and ineffability since ancient times; it makes the invisible visible whether it be the human soul and psyche, or the intuition of the divine manifesting on earth. Art establishes a dialogue between the immanent and the transcendent, unveiling the deepest meanings of both.
The works of Francesca Candito are modern icons, capable of conveying intuitions that emerge from the world of impermanence, the keeper of both collective and individual memories, and of fixing them into images charged with aesthetic meaning, rich with messages and symbolic representations which, in their etymological sense, literally act to “bring together” signifier and signified, image and message, container and content all filtered through the poetic vision of the artist. […]
Francesca is able to capture the most profoundly archaic essence of art: that of reconnecting humanity with the intuition of the divine that dwells within us and, at the same time, beyond us restoring to each person the capacity for “vision,” of an individual path understood as a life journey that is the “sum of a thousand lives.”
