Chiara Gattamelata - Madonna and Child

The iconography of motherhood is closely linked to the subject of the Madonna and Child. It is probably one of the most popular iconographies in the history of both Western and Eastern art. The Madonna and Child appears since the dawn of medieval painting and remained a constant subject as long as religious themes dominated artistic production (that is, until the 19th century, when themes inspired by everyday life began to be introduced). It is quite common for contemporary artists to treat the iconography of motherhood without directly linking it to the Christian religion.

The pictorial language of artist Chiara Gattamelata is distinguished by a pursuit of essentiality and simplicity in representation. In the painter's vision, sensory reality undergoes expressionistic modifications. These modifications are identified, first and foremost, in a reduction of drawn details in favor of a composition that expresses itself primarily through the application of color. From a chromatic perspective, it is also noteworthy that Chiara Gattamelata's palette is made up of extremely vivid colors, full of light and verging on natural truth. In this sense, we can say that all of Moriconi's pictorial work is characterized by a very naïve narrative verve that leads him to describe the world in a creative and imaginative manner.

Painter Chiara Gattamelata is the protagonist of a highly original body of work based on the expressionistic qualities of color. Her style is characterized by a very lively and imaginative interpretation of reality, marking her as a naive artist.
