Betti Brillembourg . Italy

Originally from Italy and now based in the United States, I explore the dialogue between material control and the embrace of imperfection—celebrating the unique essence of our shared humanity. Working with epoxy resin as my primary medium, I intentionally incorporated cracks, wrinkles, and textures as metaphors for life’s transformative journey. Just as resin evolves under my hands, we are shaped by our experiences. Through vibrant colors and abstract forms, my works evoke emotion and invite viewers to reflect on their own complexity. By embracing imperfection, I highlight resilience, growth, and authenticity, reminding us that our flaws are what make us beautiful human.

My current collection, Identity Journey, investigates the ways in which personal experience shapes identity. I believe every mind processes the world differently, creating a visual and emotional language unique to each individual. Even when moments are shared, our perspectives remain distinct. In my practice, I layer, edit, and manipulate imagery, yet I am captivated by the unpredictability of resin, which flows and settles in ways that resist complete control. This tension between intention and chance becomes central to my creative process, revealing meaning in the harmony between material and emotion.

My work has been presented at major art fairs, including the Affordable Art Fair New York, as well as in museum exhibitions, where it continues to resonate with diverse audiences.
