Fractals of Como Exhibition

Fractals of Como reveals a bold new chapter in Sandra Lattuca’s ongoing exploration of colour, consciousness, and hidden visual geometry, set against the extraordinary beauty of Lake Como.
With its luminous water, dramatic mountain backdrop, and historic architecture steeped in centuries of artistic tradition, Como has long drawn painters and visionaries to its shores. In this
body of work, Lattuca enters that lineage through a distinctly contemporary lens. Known for dynamic compositions that blend dream-like vistas with intricate luminous detail, Lattuca draws the viewer into a vivid world of light, patterns, ribbonets, and fractals. Her paintings create a living, shifting experience of light and colour, where structure and movement
exist simultaneously.
Figures emerge gradually from complex patterning, as though formed by the same geometry that shapes the surrounding landscape. The lake’s reflections, terracotta facades, stone arcades, and steep hillsides dissolve into layered structures of colour and rhythm. Mountains appear to ripple across the canvas, while skies break into repeating forms that echo natural fractal systems. Reflections in the water extend beyond optical description and begin to suggest psychological depth, mirroring memory, emotion, and perception itself. The surfaces feel active and responsive, carrying an internal pulse that gives the paintings a
sense of presence.
Lattuca often incorporates symbolic motifs, including glowing orbs, organic botanical forms,layered portraits, and dream imagery. Vibrant hues and surreal elements move beneath the
surface, reinforcing the idea that nature does not simply exist outside of us, but moves through perception and returns transformed.
