Emanuela Camacci (born December 20, 1968 in Rome ) is an Italian sculptor who lives and works in her native city.

Life

After Camacci had finished attending high school in Rome in 1986 , she began studying sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome, which she passed with distinction in 1990. In 1991 she acquired a certificate for engraving and copperplate engraving at the Scuola preparatoria alle arti ornamentali in Rome. From 1991 she took part in various courses, for example in Rome and Villány (Hungary).

Camacci created partly monumental sculptures made of stone, wood and iron in public spaces and private property. As a participant in the stone sculptor symposium 2013 in Hofheim am Taunus , she designed the sculpture Towards from Anröchter limestone in a greenish tint, which was purchased by the Kunstverein Hofheim in 2018 and donated to the city of Hofheim. The sculpture, which is reminiscent of a recumbent body in abstract alienation , found its place on the cellar space between the old moated castle and the cellar building.

Camacci sees her challenge in transforming the body of humans, plants and animals into an organic artistic form, tracing the diverse manifestations back to a few basic patterns and working out the organic-haptic - with a tendency towards abstraction. Camacci works with stone, wood, clay, iron and marble. Camacci tries, according to his own statements, to find an expression for the biological cycles of life, death and metamorphosis.
