About the artwork:

Original artwork by the artist Elia Pagliarino, created using a double-firing process, dedicated to Erik Satie, the minimalist and eccentric composer (author of the “Gymnopédies” and “Gnossiennes”). He lived in seclusion, his heart broken by his only romantic relationship. Avant-garde and playful, he was associated with the Dadaists and composed the scandalous ballet “Parade”. His musical scores, often annotated with humor, reveal a constant melancholy.

About the artist:

“ We must not be afraid of ambiguities; we must encourage differences. ”

Elia Pagliarino is a French visual artist born in 1967 whose work explores notions of identity, appearance and collective memory. Coming from an environment marked by diversity and disability, she draws inspiration from ethnology, biology and popular culture to create works combining drawing, sculpture and ceramics. After a career in graphic design and scenography, she has devoted herself entirely to art since 2014.

Her work stands out through collections such as the Balises©, ceramics preserving life stories, and the Contes Sauvages, large drawings representing an exuberant human bestiary. Winner of the Pure Art Prize in 2017, she continues to explore new artistic forms from her studio in the Aude region.
