Margherita Mezzetti (born 1990) is an Italian visual artist.
Her main medium is oil painting. It often opens up to other languages including sculpture, installation, textile work and writing. In her depictions, desire, disappointments and identity struggles define characters and atmospheres. Margherita Mezzetti’s works oscillate betweenviolence and beauty. Her paintings flirt with the viewer transporting them to a dangerous yet captivating place. Her subjects carry within them the tropes of girlhood, yet the longer we look at her paintings, the more innocence is washed away as darker feelings of inquietude and fear creep into the compositions. As we look closely at her figures, we notice that the big, innocent eyes are gazing far beyond the audience, as if they are completely absent from themselves, lost somewhere far away in their minds.
She got her MA in painting at the Venice Academy of Fine Arts. She currently lives and works in Berlin.
