Galleria Doris Ghetta is pleased to present Tropico Pasado, the first solo exhibition by Lucia Pizzani at the gallery and in Italy as well.

For this occasion, the artist unveils a new constellation of works that deepens her investigation into the entangled relationships between organic matter, embodied subjectivities, and ecological memory. The exhibition’s title, Tropico Pasado, evokes a stratified tropical past – a geological tropic echoing the ancient marine origins of the Dolomites – which permeates the very material and conceptual strata of the installation. These works act as carriers of biological and political memory, inscribed in deep time and in trans-historical female genealogies.

Pizzani’s interdisciplinary practice – spanning sculpture, painting, installation, and performance – constructs a visual lexicon attuned to metamorphosis, vulnerability, and multispecies coexistence. The exhibited works reflect on interdependence among living beings, the transmission of memory through forms and imprints, and the invisible sculptural agency of time itself.
