A quote from Paul Eluard: "There is no such thing as happenstance, there is but what you go to meet".

Karine Romanelli’s work explores the boundary between photography and painting. Through her collages, she layers planes and fragments space, creating scenes where interior and exterior meet, where reality shifts and transforms.
Her compositions play with perspective and move beyond classical conventions to open a freer, almost dreamlike field. Urban landscapes, familiar interiors, and everyday objects converse within a single image, as if multiple moments were unfolding at once.
Each work invites the viewer to slow their gaze. To notice the details.

The artist does away with any hierarchy between a cut out and glued image and a painted one worked on with a blade. Since one is based on the other, both practices allow the artist to multiply the textural and material effects. Time and spaces also become blurred as they come into relation with one another. Interior and exterior speak to one another and enter into one another, nostalgia for the past rubs up against the modernity of urbanism, chic and glamorous cafés come into contact with working class living areas and neighborhoods. This "grand voyage" weaves together the various levels of interpretation of the artist's work of art, between black and white and the soft and powdered colors, between memories and the present, between the private and the public, and in this way it touches upon the universality of a situation.
