AIDA CARBONE STUDIED HISTORY OF ART AT THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORENCE IN ITALY BUT EVER SINCE CHILDHOOD ART WAS IN HER LIFE. DAUGHTER TO AN ITALIAN FATHER AND A GREEK MOTHER, SHE SPENT HER SUMMERS IN GREECE WHERE SHE LIKED TO CONVERT INTO ART ANY OLD OBJECT SHE DISCOVERED, ANY LITTLE TREASURE SHE FOUND. EVERY SINGLE CREATION OF HERS IS A VOYAGE OF DISCOVERY. SEARCHING ISOLATED BEACHES BEATEN BY THE WINDS SHE DISCOVERS DRIFTWOOD THAT HAS BEEN SHAPED BY THE VIOLENT WAVES AND IRON PIECES THAT WERE RUSTED BY THE SALT OF THE SEA; PIECES THAT HAVE TRAVELLED THERE CARRYING THE SIGNS OF A PERSONAL, UNTOLD HISTORY.
INSPIRED BY THE OLD AND THE ABSTRACT, SHE TRIES TO CONNECT THE PAST WITH THE PRESENT AND THE FUTURE. SHE CREATES IMAGES BY EXPLOITING ANY PECULIARITY THAT DECAY HAS CAUSED IN ORDER TO BRING TO LIGHT EVERY HIDDEN DETAIL, PROVOKING, THIS WAY, AESTHETIC INTEREST. HER EMOTIONS GAIN COLOUR AND SHE BRINGS TO LIFE IMAGES THAT ARE HIDDEN INSIDE EVERY OBJECT.HER TECHNIQUE IS MIXED, UTILIZING ACRYLIC PAINTS AND POWDERS AS WELL AS PIECES OF OLDER PAINT. HER WORKS HAVE FREQUENTLY GOT A THREE-DIMENSIONAL FORM. ANY OF HER ARTWORKS HAS ITS OWN HISTORY AND THIS IS WHAT MAKES IT UNIQUE.
