Sophie Taricone is a passionate artist with a strong background in painting and photography. She enjoys exploring different textures and materials to create a visual language that is both personal and expressive. By combining traditional and modern techniques, she seeks to convey a deep sensitivity to touch and materiality, particularly through media such as soft pastel. Her artistic process is based on direct, tactile engagement with materials, allowing her to work intuitively and transform everyday scenes into spaces for reflection and emotional resonance.
She chooses dry pigments because it reminds her of the earth, with its raw texture and sensuality. Working with her hands and manipulating the material enables her to connect with it intimately, adjusting and guiding each gesture in a precise and personal way. Through her work, Sophie invites viewers to reconnect with the tactile world around them. For her, art is a journey of exploration, where each piece offers an opportunity to learn more about the material, the process, and herself.
