BIO

​The artist’s research investigates the transmutation of matter through a practice that aims to take the viewer to a place where memory emerges slowly and intermittently; leaving unclear thoughts and feelings, which are born from fragments of books read and conversations heard.Aspiring to a temporary nonplace, Trevisan looks for an undefined border enclosed between materiality and immateriality, as in a limbo of possibilities where everything flows and finds stillness.

​

The media used by the artist are painting and installation, which are also used as a tool for creative research, through the exploration of the relationship between matter and time, gesture and colour.The relationship with matter is the generating force behind the thought, triggering the constant dialogue between eye and hand, tactile sensation and visual perception.

​

This process triggers the thought that consequently develops into the alchemical and philosophical theories about void.In contemplating Trevisan’s works, the viewer is guided to discover the depth of alchemic sublimation through a sort of bewilderment, whilst being led to find themselves in a dimension of nothingness and emptiness, within and outside the material.​BiographyEva Chiara Trevisan (Treviso, 1991), lives and works in Venice.She graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts of Venice.

 

After a residency programme in Matera (2017), she was artist-in-residence at the Centro de Arte Contemporanea de Huarte the following year.

 

She has then been awarded with a scholarship for a residency programme at Fondazione Bevilacqua la Masa in Venice (2018/2019) and for a residence at the Progetto Borca in Dolomiti Contemporanee. In 2020, Trevisan is one of the winners of InEdita residency at Forte Marghera (Venice), and in 2021 is selected for the residency Just Imagine promoted by Liquitex and Insideart in Rome.

 

Selected exhibitions include her first solo show La Huella, curated by Marina Bastianello at Marina Bastianello Gallery. Selected prizes and group shows include: Arcipelago aperto, curated by Venice Curatorial Courses at the Magazzini del Sale, Venice (2020); Francesco Fabbri Prize for Contemporary Art, curated by Carlo Sala, Pieve di Soligo (Treviso), both in 2019 and 2020; StartStudi per l’Arte, with special mention from the PremioStart, Padua; Combat Prize, curated by Paolo Batoni at the Museo Civico Fattori in Livorno (2017).​
