Michela D'Ambros Zasio, an artist of Feltrinese origin but long-time resident of Rome, student of Pedro Cano, and having a long list of exhibitions in Milan, Blanca, and Dubai, guides visitors to discover the traces of the past scattered throughout the historic center.
Her acrylic and mixed media works on paper, set in the evocative frame of the Castle Towers, capture fragments of tombstones and sculptures erased by imperial troops during the Cambrian Wars of 1509 - 1510, by stonecutters commissioned by the Venetian government in 1691, and by French Jacobins in 1797, along with remnants of frescoes faded by time; a myriad of traces and details that often escape the distracted eye.
She captures snapshots that define a geography of memory where human events get lost and blend into the swirling flow of history, inviting reflection on the meaning of research and protection.
The towers are part of the Castle of Alboino, located atop the Colle delle Capre, which dominates the underlying Piazza Maggiore with its bulk and represents the emblem of the city.
