An Interview with Genevive Zacconi.
Who and where are you from?
My name is Genevive Zacconi, I'm an artist from Philadelphia.
How you got into this?
As far back as I can remember, I knew that I wanted to be an artist, and spent my childhood immersed in creating things from simple drawings to illustrated books, and even making my own toys.
What is your driving force?
To make art? I believe that perhaps there's a unifying, yet inexplicable driving force shared amongst all creators... and by “creator,” I mean not only artists, but also musicians, inventors, poets, and anyone else who is driven to produce something that is inessential to their own survival.
What kind of work you do and why?
Subject matter-wise, my work includes symbolic imagery, through which I try to create an expression of both my own, and collective human experiences. I frequently combine several traditional mediums within one composition, and my work in oil tends to be on the tighter, more realistic side. I think that in painting representationally, it's much easier to communicate an idea to the viewer. Also, personally, I find a catharsis in painting in a carefully rendered, detailed manner – that even when I'm making work about a painful ordeal, one in which I felt powerless, I have the capability to turn it into something shiny and polished, something wherein I have forethought and complete control over the outcome.
