Emanuela Ligal known as "Ligal" in the artwork lives in Padova, the city where she was born in 1958, but in the past she has lived in Tuscany, London and, extremely important for her artistic and personal development, in the Tosho-ji in Kyoto, a Japanese Buddhist temple, where she discovered and embraced the Zen philosophy.
She started drawing at the age of seventeen. In 1984, the entry in the Dance Room of Matisse at the Metropolitan Museum marked another fundamental moment in her artistic life, a "huge revelation", as she reports. She then decided to study art at the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice. In 1996 she finally started to paint on canvass and from that day she has never stopped. She has exhibited around Italy, and in 2000 she held an important personal exhibition in New York City.
The intensity in which she has always lived her life is deeply reflected in her artworks, where the creative surge born from the nucleus of all her past experiences. Ligal, with her work, explores the eternal and human dualism between mask and face, truth and pretence, topicality and virtuality, dream and reality that result in a mystery and alchemic world, an attractive universe of feelings

She put in scene how in reality everyone always appear in a different way from what he truly is, also in the daily environment of our life.
Ligal investigate, starting from an alert observation and analysis of the man condition in the modern society, the eternal and human dualism between mask and face, truth and pretence, dream and reality.
The result is the awareness of how the man is forced to assume a dress that stifles his real being.
The authoress, availing herself of these figures, she mean to disclose the authentic identity which hide itself behind the human appearances and lay them bare in them pathetic ridiculousness but also in all them human weakness.
The colours, often of bright contrasting tonalities, they are spread by flats background paintings that create figures which remain in the middle between a human visage and its abstraction, the fantasy and the reality.
The human face tends to lose the realistic personal characteris...
