The elements displayed in her works form a philosophical and complex system of thinking in which faces or figures are realized through the superimposition of signs and materials, by means of an original form, refined over the years with rigor and vision. They highlight the artist’s work on the elaboration of faces on “figures”; a theme that, for her, was not merely recurring but almost obsessive. Marisa Merz’s work is the revelation of a self, a succession of unknown and transfigured, but profoundly real faces.
