This work highlights the need to break a repetitive routine.
Paola questions the limits imposed by our comfort zone. Having moved often during her life, changing cities or countries, the artist has had to adapt to new environments, cultures, languages and individuals, while constantly rediscovering a new version of herself.
This work, imbued with dreams and naivety, reflects the comfort zone through elements inspired by modern objects and everyday habits. The architectural structures with distinctive colors symbolize reality in contrast with absurdity, dreams, beliefs and "achievable or unattainable goals". The black hole represents the unknown: should we abandon ourselves to it, accept failure and apprehend the darkness in order to hope to reach the light? What do we find at the top of the stairs? Is there a last step? Can we go further, improve ourselves, surpass ourselves?
Colors may vary slightly from actual color.
