Alessia Airo-Farulla

As a third-generation Sicilian living in Australia, my work explores the layers of personal and familial identity through the lens of memory. Drawing from childhood photographs and home videos, I paint portraits and scenes that capture the nostalgia of shared moments and the passage of time.

Painting becomes a way to rediscover and preserve fragments of my family’s history. Through this process, I invite viewers to reflect on their own memories, as I open the window into my own, and my family’s.
