Lucia Ragusa, painter, sculptor and mosaicist, was born in Catania, where she currently lives and has an active artistic studio. He studied painting at the Academy of Fine Arts of Catania and Ravenna. Later she specialized in restoration in Florence at Palazzo Spinelli. She was a professor of sculpture and decoration at the ABADIR - Academy of Fine Arts and Restoration of Catania. For over twenty-five years it has been permanently located in some of the most prestigious art galleries. He has collected personal and collective exhibitions, both national and international. His works are part of public and private collections. Lucia Ragusa's inspiration is an emotional disposition that is a personal investigation of a physical dimension. Energy and delicacy in boundless spaces invaded by suffused colors, where the rules of an ordinary description are measured with an unusual composition, built on the principle of the underlying and the particular. Several historians and art critics have written about her including Arnaldo Romani Brizzi, Franco Sarnari, Rosanna Ricci, Paolo Giansiracusa, Luca Lombardo, Giuseppina Radice, Elisa Mandarà



Text by Rosanna Ricci: Critical Editor of the San Domenico Museums - Forlì - Curator of the "Art" section of the rest of the Carlino.

What defines the Lucia Ragusa's work is experience. His curriculum is proof of this:

Diploma in drawing and painting, qualifications in archaeological restoration, in mosaic, in ceramics, in sculpture.

He is currently a teacher of Decoration and Sculpture, moreover, he has a twenty-five-year exhibition itinerary to his credit. Lucia Ragusa, however, is not only an expert executor of well-made forms, but she is above all an artist who knows how to give, to those who observe her works, the same vitality and the strong charge of emotions that she feels in front of a landscape, for a flower or an object.

All this sets in motion a free and fruitful creativity, but always rigorous in the aesthetic proposal.

dedication to art offers Lucia Ragusa the suggestive opportunity to confront nature and, at the same time, to reflect on the importance of art as a medium for communicating emotions and personal interpretations of what reality offers. It follows that technical skill and an evident sensitivity in the use of color and light offer implications full of poetry ...

These works are, in other words, Lucia Ragusa's autobiography of her rigor in making art, but also in the silent movements of her sensitive soul.
