About Tania Metalli:
Tania Metalli was born in Rome, Italy, a city drenched in art, iconography, and monumental architecture. Each of these particularly Roman qualities can be seen in her fantastical paintings of brooding, statuesque figures. Metalli’s distinctive faces are rendered as graceful masks while hard-edged, geometric configurations saturate the figures, isolated from context with backgrounds of flat, bold color. "I consider my art a mirror that reflects images from my inner world,” she explains. “Through my work I'm able to explore that world and bring back pictures of symbols and of the creatures that inhabit it.”
Metalli’s interest in costumes and clothing styles is readily apparent, having studied both photography and fashion in college. After graduation, she in Australia for eight years before returning to Europe. Metalli’s work has been emblazoned on her own t-shirt line in addition to being exhibited in galleries around England and Australia. Metalli lives and works in London.
