Federica Belloli, a self-taught Italian painter, embarked on a remarkable artistic journey that led her to become a masterful portrait artist. Her passion for art found its formative years in the atelier of the esteemed painter and dear friend, Rodolfo Guzzoni. Under his mentorship, she honed her skills and nurtured her innate talent, establishing a strong foundation for her artistic endeavors.
Federica Belloli's art is a profound exploration of portraiture - an art form that captures the essence of a moment, an emotion, or a memory frozen in time. Her portraits serve as windows into the human soul, painting vivid emotional landscapes with a masterful hand. Through her work, she skillfully conveys a range of emotions, including melancholy, loneliness, hope, and the inherent fragility of human nature.
Her preferred medium is acrylic, a choice influenced by its matte finish and rapid drying times. This technical preference grants her the freedom to create with immediacy, allowing her to translate her artistic visions onto the canvas without the constraint of lengthy drying periods.
Federica Belloli's artistic journey has transcended borders, as her compelling works have been showcased in exhibitions both nationally and internationally. Her talent has garnered recognition and acclaim, leading her paintings to find their homes in private collections across Europe, America, Australia, and Asia. Her art's universal appeal and ability to resonate with viewers from diverse backgrounds have contributed to its widespread recognition.
In acknowledgment of her artistic excellence, Federica Belloli received the prestigious Medal of Artistic Merit at the Salòn Internacional ESART in Barcelona in both 2019 and 2020.

The exhibition “A Deep Connection” aims to explore the complex bond between humans and animals, a relationship that dates back thousands of years and continues to evolve in different ways. This exhibition project will guide the visitor through various dimensions of this connection, examining the importance of animals in human life, the symbolism surrounding them, and the ways in which our relationship with them influences our world. The emotional aspect of their intimate coexistence relationship is important: in this lies the concept of empathy between the two species and how this connection can positively influence people's lives.
