ROBERTA MARIA RICCIO CHIRIVINO, KNOWN AS RI.CHI, AND THE CREATIVE INSTANT

Roberta Maria Riccio Chirivino, known as Ri.Chi, was born in Magenta, lives between Magenta and Milan, studied at the Sorbonne University and today possesses her own studio in Milan, in Brera.
Her works are the result of inspirations and cultural roots which find their fulfillment in a “creative instant” which transforms idea into work of art.

I interviewed Ri.Chi to know her better, to understand how her works come to life and her relationship with art history, the territory she works in and latest technology.
