Golden Beauty
by Laura Bernardeschi
Dimensions: 40 x 40 x 2 cm
Signed front and back; delivered with a certificate of authenticity
Medium: Acrylics, glue, glass, varnish
In Golden Beauty, Laura Bernardeschi explores the minimalist elegance of gold, a colour that symbolises both spirituality and beauty. Through her delicate composition, the artist elevates gold to a sacred, almost otherworldly plane, inviting the viewer to reflect on the deeper connections between art, nature, and the cosmos.
The piece features three small glass elements—each a symbolic representation of one of nature’s gifts: a leaf, a shell, and a flower. These delicate fragments evoke the harmony of the natural world, grounded yet transcendent, speaking to the interconnectedness of life on Earth.
Gold, in this artwork, is not just a colour but a vehicle for spiritual reflection. It serves as a bridge between the material and immaterial, the earthly and the divine, offering a moment of pause and reverence for the beauty of our planet.
This artwork is both serene and striking, capturing the essence of nature’s timeless beauty through a minimalist lens and inviting the viewer to contemplate the richness of life, spirit, and the environment.

Secret Moments
by Laura Bernardeschi
Year: 2024
Dimensions: 40 x 40 x 2 cm
Signed front and back; delivered with a certificate of authenticity
Medium: Acrylics on canvas, wallpaper collage, glue, oil pastels, pencils
In Secret Moments, Laura Bernardeschi captures the serene intimacy of nature, illustrating a couple of birds nestled in the branches of a tree, seemingly lost in their own quiet moment. The artwork invites the viewer into this peaceful scene, where the simple beauty of life in nature takes centre stage.
The artist employs a rich variety of mixed media to bring the composition to life. Acrylics form the foundation of the piece, while collage elements—scraps of wallpaper—are layered into the scene, enhancing the tactile richness and adding depth. Oil pastels and pencils contribute further texture and detail, allowing the birds and tree to emerge with both softness and definition.
In keeping with her commitment to sustainability, Laura frequently incorporates recycled materials into her work. Here, she has used leftover items from her own DIY projects, highlighting the importance of environmental responsibility in art-making. This practice not only imbues the work with personal significance but also reinforces the artist’s message about the value of reusing materials and respecting the planet.
Through Secret Moments, the artist reminds us of the beauty in simplicity and the quiet moments of connection that nature offers. The interplay of media and textures serves as a metaphor for the harmony and fragility of our natural world—both beautiful and in need of care.
