Marilina Marchica, born in 1984, was born in Agrigento, where she lives and works. She graduated in Painting from the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna and the Polytechnic University of Valencia in 2008, training with Luca Caccioni, Giovanni Mundula and Adriano Bacilieri.
From the outset, Marilina Marchica has oriented her research towards the theme of subtraction and the aesthetics of the sign. Her pictorial investigation goes to the limit of abstraction thanks to a reflection on architecture and, in particular, on the wall as an internal/external diaphragm and metaphor of the relations between man, nature and time.
Architecture takes on a symbolic value in relation to collapse and demolition and imposes itself as a metaphor for a universal and existential dimension.
Marilina Marchica has had several solo exhibitions ,
2023 “Lo Spazio Fragile”, FAM Gallery in Agrigento, 2021 “Ad-Arte” ,San Sebastiano Contemporary-Casa Bramante in Palazzolo Acreide, 2019 “l’Isola Plurale” Spazio HUS in Milan. In addition to the site-specific intervention conceived for the crypt of the Church of Santa Maria del Piliere in Palermo in 2017, it is worth mentioning the participation in the 2nd edition of the FAM Award ,Fabbriche Chiaramontane in Agrigento and the artist residency at Villa Aurea – Valle dei Templi, promoted by the Superintendence of Cultural Heritage of Agrigento and the. solo exhibition ‘Signs and Landscapes’ at the FAM Gallery in 2016, In 2021, she was invited to participate in the project ‘Visioni Oblique, Libri d’artista, Libri oggetto, Fototesti per il Belice’.
