Born in 1976 in San Donà di Piave, near Venice, Annalù (A. Boeretto) is a contemporary Italian artist celebrated for her dreamlike sculptures that blend natural elements with experimental materials. Living and working in her stilt house on the banks of the Piave River, Annalù draws deeply from her surroundings to create ethereal works that seem to hover between the organic and the otherworldly.
Over the years, Annalù has exhibited extensively across Italy and internationally, including at prestigious venues such as the Venice Biennale (2001, 2011) and the Moya Museum in Vienna.
Her work is held in numerous public and private collections worldwide, and she has garnered critical acclaim through multiple awards such as the Arte Laguna Prize, the Zaha Hadid Award, and the Stonefly Prize for Contemporary Art. Through her innovative use of materials such as resin, fiberglass, bark, paper, and glass, Annalù constructs “suspended worlds”—delicate, flowing sculptures that defy gravity and expectation. Her pieces, often resembling blooming lotus flowers, exploding books, or dissolving butterflies, evoke a sense of metamorphosis, transformation, and timeless beauty.

Biography
Biography
Annalù’s art is a study in controlled chaos—a poetic union of matter and spirit. Working primarily in resin and mixed media, she crafts sculptures that appear impossibly delicate, almost caught in the act of dissolving or forming. Her meticulous layering process captures fleeting moments of transition: paper pages flutter mid-air, glass petals shimmer with movement, and roots and branches fracture into crystal-like forms.
Far from static objects, her creations are dynamic, as if breathing or evolving before our eyes. Annalù often explores themes of metamorphosis and impermanence, invoking the cycles of nature and the unseen energies that govern transformation.
The influence of alchemy is deeply embedded in her work—not only through the merging of materials, but also through the sense of inner transmutation her art conveys. Her sculptures are visual meditations on change, spiritual growth, and the dualities between fragility and strength, chaos and harmony. Her approach is both technical and intuitive. By dominating physical materials—resin, sand, cement, paper, bitumen—she conjures illusions of lightness and movement, making heavy substances appear airborne. This mastery is not just of craft, but of concept: she creates a visual language for what is intangible—time, memory, breath, and transformation. Rooted in the Venetian landscape and informed by her formal training at the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice, Annalù’s work bridges classical beauty and contemporary experimentation.
Each piece is a portal—inviting viewers into a suspended realm where nature, spirit, and imagination converge.
