"Without such art" consists of 7 portraits of women resorted to cosmetic surgery. Maria Grazia Solano part of a project over a year ago that has changed and evolved over the course of the sessions and conversations with his models: registered the change that was manifested, listening and painting, realizing what it meant to him. Solano had the need to understand their curiosity, caused by time and the effect it produces on the human being deposited on the skin and, as often happens, had to find out through the other self. "With a nose like mine I could never play Juliet. I recited to overcome inhibitions, you have a reason to be in the spotlight, you need to get a round of applause to break away from themselves. The paint me back together. "
And 'dissatisfaction with the achievement of an ideal of beauty that the artist Turin records through the talks, which also become the pièces, even more contemporary through the use of a chair / confessional. The models are in fact portrayed in the same chair, which is also the place where we are told: they talked about themselves, their dreams, that Mary Grace has revealed through the silent code of the painting. He could not tell it any other way because what goes on stage can not and should not be told, "translate" through the narrative would be to betray.
