About the artist

Chiusano Carla

Italy

Carla Chiusano, born in Turin in 1964, left her hometown at 6 months and returned briefly as a young adult. Constantly moving, she sought something to make her feel at home, and found that in painting and humorous drawing. These became her "invisible friends," comforting her and helping her make sense of her experiences. Carla uses humoristic drawings to rebel against society and communicate her feelings directly. She worked with Bulgari creating comic books for their top clients. She believes life should be taken seriously, but never oneself or society too seriously.
