OPENING

On view October 3 to 19, 2024 – Monday through Friday 10AM to 4PM

 

Thanks to the tapestries, embroideries and sculptures by Allegra Hicks, visitors will enter Campania and Italy in the most intense and immersive way, discovering how much future lies in the past, how much creativity in what appears burnt and buried. The fire and the broom – at the end of this journey – will no longer seem like two opposites, but two emblems of the same energy.

 

Allegra Hicks is an artist and designer who lives and works between London and Naples. Known for her eye for patterns, Allegra attributes her inspiration to the world around her, building from the colors and forms found in nature. Beginning her career in fresco painting, today Allegra continues to respect the fluidity of watercolor across a wide range of media, from tapestries to rugs to cast bronze and metal work. Over the past decades, Allegra’s work has flourished into one off design pieces which investigate the diaphanous bridge between art and design.
