Germana Gismondi uses a variety of mixed media that allow her to give depth and tactility to her works, transforming the canvas into a true emotional landscape. Here are some of the main approaches:
- Acrylic, watercolor, and oil: he alternates fluidity and density of color to evoke contrasting moods
- Unconventional materials: he uses sea sand, sawdust, paper collage, and objects, giving a strong material component to his works
- Ink on paper: for more graphic and essential works, where the linear stroke tells intimate stories or urban visions
- Collage and layering: he superimposes pictorial and textured elements to create a three-dimensional, almost sculptural effect
- Acrobatic perspectives and symbolic deformations: in some works, the architecture is distorted to accentuate a sense of bewilderment or introspection
His techniques reflect a need to express the invisible, the emotional, the unsaid—making it tangible through form and material.
