Mara Fabbro was born in Castello d'Aviano in Friuli Venezia Giulia, Italy, where she currently lives and works. After graduation, she began her career while always keeping her passion for painting alive.
She studied and worked as a self-taught for many years, experimenting a technique of her own that expressed her sense for art, creating a sandy dough that she spreads and works with her hands, spatulas and other tools, subsequently intervening with acrylic pigment. The choice of this material is determined by the desire to create a "living" work with a strong communicative impact.
The material is applied to plywood and PVC panels.
The inspiration and motivation of her work come from the observation of the habitat in which the human being lives. She wants to investigate the relationship and the link between man and nature, now almost indissoluble and which, becoming even more complex, requires responsible choices and global attention and management.
She uses other expressive mediums such as photography and installations when the manual skills are not sufficient to express the concept or to establish an interaction with the public.
Mara has held solo exhibitions and participated in collective exhibitions all over the world, both for public and private entities: Rimini, Mantua, London, Venice, Sacile (PN), Miami, Trento, Conegliano (TV), Geneva, Montreux , Lugano, Lausanne, Palermo, New York.
