Biagini will be presenting new paintings, photograms and sculptures that flow seamlessly from medium to medium. Utilizing a bold sense of color, line, depth, flatness and abstraction the varied works find commonalities in their language, composition, playfulness and sensorial experience. In her paintings, repetitious colored string-like lines loop and interweave infinitely into and out of themselves, evoking sound waves, seismic motion/vibrations and temperature currents. Similarly, her alluring color photograms, which are created completely in the darkroom with filters and objects, are captured moments of the lyrical residues of the process used to create them. The sculptures act as a 3 dimensional perspective of the 2 dimensional work in that they are direct manipulations of the chosen material and reveal to us an idea of a self-sustaining system. Throughout the work geometric shapes such as circles, lines and triangles manifest the compositions playing key visual roles. Evoking ideas of physics, the geometric shapes are activated and their movement acts as a definition of animation and therefore of what makes life.
