French artist Manuela Dalle graduated in political science and sociology, she works primarily in two media: film and ceramics. Her work has been shown at venues including MOCA Los Angeles, Opéra National de Paris, Fondation Luma, the San Diego/Tijuana Twin Cities Year of Design, Toronto's Black Film Festival and Hauser and Wirth Gallery among others. Apart from a few objects that she continually remakes to find their ideal form (bedside table and carafe), her work is essentially focused on the design of murals and bas-reliefs. In this work, she explores the notion of composition and the relationship/ circulation between different elements which, once assembled, create a unity. Inspired by Art Deco architecture, her mural creations are essentially based on building details and iconic motifs, like a cinematic zoom that provokes a change of scale. The shapes revealed are rendered organic and free by reinterpreting them freehand.
