Portal: Antonella Mellini
Le opere di Anto sono come un portale che collega universi paralleli altrimenti irraggiungibili. Nascono dal subconscio, dove i suoi studi scientifici si fondono con l’empatia e la spontaneità delle emozioni.
Il concetto di energie assume un significato profondo. Esse emergono come scritture nascoste sotto la superficie delle opere, intrecciando l’energia del singolo pezzo a quella del pianeta e degli universi.
Anto is a conceptual artist who explores the connection between human energy, spirituality, and art. Her performances represent chapters of a broader project: placing her MENHIRS in different parts of the world to weave a network of positive energy that links the works and the people.
During these performances, the audience is invited to take an active role, imprinting their own secret phrases onto the works—phrases charged with energy and positive vibrations. These merge with the artist’s essence, giving life to the final artwork. The pieces, placed on the ground, are previously engraved by the artist with ancient legends, early 20th-century narratives, and scientific texts, later concealed under layers of enamel. Each work is chosen by the public according to the energy it emits, reinforcing the connection between the word and the artistic gesture.
The MENHIRS, functioning like antennas, channel the participants’ energy. Similar to the ancient menhirs that marked vital energy points on Earth, Anto’s works act as catalysts of human energy, transforming each space into a crossroads of emotional and spiritual connections, weaving an invisible yet tangible bond between the art and those who experience it.
