Gabriella Dell'Aquila McClorey is a displaced artist.

Art(ist) within the Art, within the Art is a prelude in which boundaries are diluted. The - obvious - boundaries  between artist and the art; the boundaries between places and time; a prelude to an upcoming exhibition (2026) but an epilogue to histories within histories. The strange presence of the unspoken; the weird absence where traces of archaeology are lost. The art(ist) within the art within the art - when the art project is driven by a love to a land but the land is no more but a state of mind; the boundaries between memory and heritage cross with the new land where other stories are told within the stories and the stories; and no matter how much you tell, how much traces you find - there will always be that mysterious presence within, like a Dream within a Dream. The changes (______) brought launched me to living more truly; it is a work of endurance while speaking of quite the opposite.
The series is a collection of landscape and architectural photos and studies of the silhouette of existence that defy the boundaries between fashion and fine arts while exploring archival Alexander McQueen trough a land across the Oceans within memories of the heritage.
