What is Fresco?
Liana Sofia explains, "what is fresco?" during a short film that documents the creation of a 3 section Fresco. Fresco is an ancient medium that requires large works to be painted in sections called "giornate." Each "giornata" is a section of fresh plaster that must be painted on before it dries and signifies 1 painting day of approx 12-15 hours. This is a rare opportunity to view how frescoes like the famous Sistine Chapel ceiling, were created. After watching "What is Fresco?" be sure to watch "The Strappo Technique" a deeper look at the processes Liana uses to create her work.
