Carla Tolomeo (Italy)
Never rest on my laurels
Carla Tolomeo is an atypical artist in the arts field. Born as a painter, she was taken into De Chirico's studio when she was a child and over the course of a long career has signed works with Hermès, Missoni and Blumarine. Following her numerous exhibitions and international awards, she now turns her attention to the design world, precisely to the FlavioLucchiniArt Museum, the former atelier of the artist Flavio Lucchini, which showcases his production and the works of others like him, in an exhibition space where she will place some of her latest works at the event. Carla Tolomeo is similar to Flavio in her research of beauty, emotion, and uniqueness. By Formitalia Luxury Interiors, the Mirabilia collection shows off the artist's world through the soft and plastic shapes of her iconic sofas, her distinctive style: different, colorful, fantastic, surreal, her last creations are both objects on which to lay down and artworks to admire. Imaginative birds fly, enormous roses bloom, butterflies dance, and other happy symbols play on silks, brocades, and velvets.
