For the realization of There are more things in Heaven and Earth, a site-specific installation conceived for the Organica Museum, the artist Antonella Spanu has chosen drawing as the protagonist. As Mariolina Cosseddu writes in the critical text accompanying the exhibition, "drawing is the foundation of art history and lends itself to embodying the very origin of every project, the foundational moment of thought becoming concrete, the iconic principle of the idea translated into tangible forms. Spanu's drawing is all this and something more: it aspires to pose as a demonstration of a challenge with the world, as a performative action full of profound consequences. With a pencil in hand, in fact, one can embark on a journey into thought and consciousness, traverse territories unknown to the visible, enter a world full of poetic resonances and ideological purposes, always with a fixed goal like a mantra: to do much with little. Indeed, to do everything that a single pencil allows, which means producing an immeasurable system of images until that prodigious lead is exhausted. Thus, forms are brought to life, as in a diary of days, with barely sketched shapes and completed images, sketches in progress and already definitive drafts. The result is a tapestry like a tapestry in the making, a large illustrated book, a map of dreams and visions that the light stroke skillfully and effortlessly indicates for as many future dialogues with the Nature dilemma. Graphic episodes on which the eye lingers to capture, from these visual notes, suggestions and reasons for broader thought processes." During the vernissage, the artist will be present with a performance for the public.


Antonella Spanu was born in Mogoro (OR) in 1974. After attending the Art Institute of Oristano, she continued her studies at the Academy of Fine Arts "Mario Sironi" in Sassari, graduating in painting. During these years, she participated in several solo and group exhibitions. After her studies, she moved to Turin where she continued her artistic research and worked as a restorer. In 2005, following her move to Barcelona, she began to work in design and fashion and created the brand Disabitando. Upon returning to Sassari in 2006, she continued her research on the Disabitando project and collaborated with theater companies in the creation of costumes. She also collaborated with public entities and cultural associations working in the field of art education.
