Roberta Serafini
Artisan artist of creative regeneration
Every chair holds a story
For Roberta Serafini, every chair holds a story that can continue. Her passion stems from a desire to rescue what seems to have outlived its purpose, recognizing its potential and transforming it through manual craftsmanship, artistic sensitivity, and the exploration of new combinations.
Chairs become the focus of her creative language: forms to rediscover, fabrics to reinterpret, colors and textures to bring into dialogue. Each intervention gives the furniture a new identity, preserving its connection to its history while opening it up to unexpected stylistic possibilities.
The meeting with Micol Art Gallery
The meeting at Montedoro Free Time with Valentina Trapani, founder of Micol Art Gallery, sparked an immediate connection, fueled by mutual trust and a shared vision: to place art at the heart of regeneration, enhancing materials, objects, and skills.
Arte4R: the value of manual craftsmanship
This affinity led to her joining the Arte4R — Recovery, Restoration, Regeneration and Reuse project as an artisan artist. Micol Art Gallery will accompany her journey with a dedicated catalog, showcasing her creations and the value of manual craftsmanship.
The collaboration also looks toward the transmission of knowledge: Roberta will bring her experience to the project, with the aim of sharing techniques and knowledge with future students, encouraging them to explore creative and regenerative art.
A shared vision: zero waste
The “zero waste” philosophy is the common ground of this meeting: a commitment to recognizing value in available resources and allowing new ideas to emerge from collaboration. In this close-knit group, Roberta’s contribution intertwines craftsmanship, experimentation, and new trends, giving shape to the vocation that is part of Micol Art Gallery’s DNA: making art a concrete possibility for transformation.
