Borello’s multidisciplinary installations sit between violence and eroticism, and deal with issues of emigration and belonging. Her installations, using photography and sculpture, refer to the human body, to sexual organs and body parts.The actual sculptures are made of mass produced domestic and industrial objects that the artist transforms into sculptures.
Combining longing and brutality, Borello’s work has developed into a painful experience of the self.
