Giorgia Bel

Giorgia Bel (b. 1990) is a self-taught artist who began painting in 2015 during a period of illness. What began as a means of coping became a profound passion.

Bel’s practice is grounded in memory, imagination and a tender, melancholic connection to place.

Rendered in milky, dirtied-down colour and suffused with the tones of dawn to dusk—the works evoke a drenched landscape, bursting with life and vitality. With skeletal trees and Rothko-like washes, her landscapes blend the known and imagined, guided by a philosophy of art as medicine.
