Francesca Gabrielli
Born in Rome, where she lives and works.
Goldsmith Diploma at the Goldsmiths School, Rome, after which she
entered the world of the “antique jewellers shops” where she learned
their secrets.
Francesca has been constantly involved in the diffusion of
contemporary gold and silver design and she presently runs an art
gallery.
Fascinated by both painting and sculpture, she mixes the two,
playing with the colours of the minerals and the plasticity of the
metals.
Her artistic culture, while based on classical artisanal principles,
is characterized by her research with alternative materials and the
diverse treatment of surfaces. She is at ease also when using
titanium, aluminium, “dicroico” glass and synthetic enamel, having a
natural ability she joins old traditional methods with avant-garde
technology.
The chromatic effects obtained through this method create visual
effects of particular intensity.
