    Since our stories all sound alike | 2018

Galleria Campari, Milano, 2018, solo show curator: Ilaria Bonacossa The series of works produced on the occasion of the exhibition is rooted in her recent interest in the classic genre of portraiture, leading her to push the confines of the shape of the face to its most abstract limits. Using materials with a strong symbolic value such as ceramics, stone and marble, Ember reduces her faces to abstract shapes which, in terms of features and forms, evoke faces, busts and masks, creating a magical aura of memories, traditions, rituals, lost identities and multiple stories.
