Loredana Longo

The scar is the indelible sign of the clash and of the pain, but it does not open up a new awareness, or as the artist says: “Experience is of no use, we know what things hurt us and we do them again. Because after all we like that mistake, the mistake is life itself”.

Loredana Longo (Catania, 1967 - lives and works in Milan) obtained a diploma in Foreign Languages and a Degree in Painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Catania.
The ability with which she uses multiple materials and techniques, is certainly the fundamental prerogative of the artist, who loves to work on large sizes, never leaving out the details.
In recent years she has been the leading artist of workshops such as Art & Social Change at Gam in Palermo and the Art of Freedom at the Ucciardone Prison in Palermo.
For over twenty years she has been working in Italy and abroad.
