The title of Linda Carrara’s project, “Madonna of the rocks”, refers to the works of Leonardo da Vinci, which become a starting point for studying morphology of the landscape of Adda river. The artist envelops the rocky shores with a frottage hatching that reveals the shape and softens its contours, giving the impression of a Renaissance “sfumato”. In the works of Linda historical and artistic memory of native landscapes, which were once captured by Leonardo, becomes visible and tangible, and therefore even more ambiguous. The artistic practice of Linda, which fluctuates on the line between painting and sculpture, natural and synthetic, is built around this concept.
