Ludovica Mazzucato
The human being
Padovana, born and raised in Italy, and Canadian by flight, Ludovica Mazzucato falls in love with dance at a young age. She immediately enjoys sports, speaking the languages, and creating in every form. She travels extensively and experiences life in several countries. Her days are full of work, nature, flavors, creations, connections, adventures, and an insatiable lust for being herself, ever since. Ludovica Mazzucato’s world is ripe with emotions, sensuality, poetry, imagination, and colors, yet extraordinarily simple, pragmatic, and real. She appreciates the finer things in life, like a handmade gown, a sunrise swim, leather shoes, bare feet midnight walks, campfires, salty waves, the apricot warm with sun, a singing Bialetti, a pliè and the smell of the dance studio, Merino wool, coral, and silk chiffon, the lights of the backstage before curtains open, alpine silence, carving red cedar on the beach, mother of pearl, motherhood, wild horse rides, her well-worn passport, water, crisp sheets, and a house of bricks and wood. Galleria Taralli is a door to her world.
“Wear your dance shoes when you come in!”

The artist
There isn’t a talent that Ludovica Mazzucato says no to. She falls in love with it, rides it, tames it, laughs it, dances it, and contemplates it until she owns it like she owns herself, but she does none of it for anything other than her pleasure to do so. She won’t discuss the obvious, she won’t analyze art, she won’t talk about the weather, but she will laugh for hours playing with the kids and she will roll in the grass with the dog, and she will create, and create, and create. She will sing while she jumps in a grand jetè across the stage. She radiates grace. She will never waste a second complicating what’s easy, and oh! she makes everything look so easy that you want to remove everything in her way and enjoy watching her thrive; So easy that you want to try doing it yourself to be part of her world and you are blown away by her intelligence; By how far she goes to do what she does, how talented she is, and how deep her lightheartedness is. She has mastered the art of being above what doesn’t matter to her and making it all about what does. To be part of her world is to witness her. She’s steady, dancing fresh air.
“If you haven’t heard me laughing yet, you are either too close or too far. I hope you are too far!”
Ludovica Mazzucato
Che gioia provo nel non spiegare chi sono, cosa faccio, cosa mi rende felice e perchè creo. La mia arte nasce così. Da me. Dal ballare a voce piena, con i polmoni accesi di colori e la voglia di vivere, senza spiegazioni. I’ll meet you there.

My artwork
Resonates with texture, sensual details, and beloved trails that melt into pleasure under the touch that explores the layers.
These artworks dance with the senses and the natural light.
They are meant to be touched, loved, felt, lived.
Le mie opere d’arte si ballano, si ascoltano, s’indossano, si gustano, si vivono.
The taste of color
The texture of sound
The fragrance of the fingertips on the canvas
The conversation of dance in new familiar colors
Fall in love
Taste the emotions with your hands.
Widen the gaze to hear with all of yourself.
Devour a color with your breath and find another. And another.
The narratives melt under the warmth of the fingertips on the canvas. A glow through the window enlightens the dance. A souffle de feu.
Bathe in the intimacy of a moving detail.
