Artistically, Patrizia’s interests have always manifested with the human form, more specifically with faces. Although she has strong abilities to capture a likeness, traditional portraiture was never her goal. Portraying something deeper, more emotional or philosophical about being human has always taken precedence. Through the eyes of her subjects, she hopes to speak to the viewer on things pertaining to the human condition, the workings of the human brain, the individual on the inside vs. the one perceived on the outside, our connection to each other, the word we inhabit, the universe and our purpose in it.
Patrizia Vignola is a native New Yorker who now lives and works in Minnesota. She earned her MFA at the New York Academy of Art and her BFA in Illustration from FIT. She also studied in Florence, Italy where she focused on the drawing and painting techniques of the masters.
She has been the recipient of the following grants: an Original Work Grant through NY Foundation for the Arts and Staten Island Arts, the DCA and Staten Island Premier Grant, JPMorgan Chase Arts in our Communities grant and the Su Casa Teaching grant. In addition, she won first prize for Creative Story Telling in Painting from the Edelman PR Firm.
Patrizia has extensive experience teaching art to people of all ages and levels including: teaching artist residencies in NYC Public Schools, JCC’s in NY and NJ, a high school gifted and talented program through Middlesex County Collage, St. John’s University, the New York Academy of Art Continuing Ed program, and currently Shattuck-St. Mary’s College Preparatory School in Minnesota.
Patrizia’s work has been in solo and group exhibitions throughout the US.
