Caroline Berzi, Contemporary Artist

Nadine AbdelGhaffar
About this episode

Caroline Berzi was born and resides in Egypt, where she received her degree in Business Administration. Following a 7-year career as a financial analyst, her passion for the arts led her to become a full-time artist. Caroline recently graduated from SACI Florence with a Post-Bac Studio Arts Degree in 2019, where she focused on painting, serigraph, and installation works. Berzi did one solo show, Genesis (Motion Art Gallery) on the 10th of June and participated in several group shows: Different Melodies (Ubuntu, 2019), Pendulum (Florence, 2019), The Fleeting Other (Florence, 2019), LePasha (Cairo, 2017) and Artabitta (Cairo, 2015 & 2019).

Berzi was always interested in graffiti, colorful and vibrant artworks. Her work developed from charcoal, pencil and oil paintings to the mixed media ones she does now, and using everyday materials to make art. Her work taps a lot into sustainability and raising environmental awareness and concerns, it stemmed from her interest in abstract expressionism and her inspiration from nature.
