Born in Lecce, Dores Sacquegna is
a contemporary Italian curator and multimedia artist, working in several
fields, including printmaking, photography, installations, design, and artist's
books. Her work challenges reality and enters the magic of an imaginative
elsewhere, where vision and narration become part of an indivisible process. The
recurring themes of her art are the poetic, coexisting opposites, objects of
collective memory, the real and the unreal, and the 360-degree visual space.
Sacquegna earned a Doctorate at the Academy of Fine Arts in Lecce and has
studied printmaking in Rome, Luxembourg, and Prague. Besides creating art, she
is also a renowned curator who has curated numerous exhibitions, festivals,
events, and seminars, both in Italy and abroad.
