[1] The works of Denise Milan contemplate multiple languages. From sculpture to poetry, from prints to videoart, performances and round-tables, all these forms integrated all in an organic and coherent art expression through the stone, Denise invites us to enter natures realm. To look to its genesis, from chaos to order, as a parallel with artistic process. Beyond form, the process of formation, beyond art, as the arrival, the path and its confrontations. National and international projection artist, her poetry is imbued with the mythical universe, a series of symbols that evoke and awaken as the stone does, our ancestral memory.

Work[edit]

The work of Denise Milan includes multiple languages. From sculpture to poetry, print to video art, performances and debates, integrates the various doings in an organic and coherent whole. Through the stone, it invites us to enter the nature, seeing in its genesis, from chaos to order, a parallel with the artistic process. More than the form itself, the process of formation, more than art, as a point of arrival, the path and the conflicts of the way. National and international projection artist, his poetry is imbued with the mythical universe, a series of symbols that evoke and awaken as the stone does our ancestral memory.[14] [15]
