During her fine career, Annapia Antonini has dedicated much
of her creativity to the art of still life and the poetic relationships
existing in the moment among common objects. Such is the case with
Les Petites Poissons Rouges ('The Little Red Fish') where two red fish,
their aquarium, a decanter and a clock create a compelling image of interconnected forms,
colors and textures. |
