Nazzarena Poli Maramotti | Jardin Planétaire

z2o Sara Zanin is pleased to announce Jardin Planétaire, the solo show by Nazzarena Poli Maramotti, curated by Silvia Bottani, at Palazzo da Mosto in Reggio Emilia.
The exhibition offers an overview of the work of the artist from Reggio Emilia, whose practice has always centered on the theme of landscape—a genre in dialogue with the history of modern art, yet continually renewed through a personal archive of photographs, clippings, papers, and visual materials transformed by time.

 

In the works on display, dense and gestural brushstrokes, vibrant colors, and a material lattice that breaks through the two-dimensional plane restore a new vital energy to the landscape. For Poli Maramotti, reflection on chance and error—understood as fundamental engines of the creative process—is an integral part of this dissolution of the known. Error becomes transition, transformation, possibility; every event acquires its own purpose, generating new visual and conceptual connections.

The title Jardin Planétaire is inspired by this vision. The artist identifies with the role of a “planetary gardener,” engaged in negotiating the relationship between herself and the surrounding environment. In her works, the garden becomes a metaphor for dynamic balance: it is the space of the uncultivated that proves the most vital, where biodiversity thrives and variation can emerge thanks to the unexpected.

Like a careful gardener, the artist accepts the need to let things be, recognizing in imperfection and disorder the most authentic condition of the living world.

Most of the works on display are previously unseen, testifying to the freedom with which the artist approaches painting, moving fluidly across different supports—canvas, panel, paper, ceramic—in a continuous dialogue between matter and color.
