Artist Statement

 Librizzi’s work looks toward the inanimate artifacts of contemporary life to contemplate personal and interpersonal feelings of desire, self-perception, humiliation, joy, and the connectedness of the world built around them. Although the depiction of the flesh and blood of a person is reserved for the rare occasion, their presence and concerns sit at the forefront. With slight modifications and careful arrangements, familiar sights take on new roles creating a scene that blurs between still life, portraiture, and landscape. Here there is often a sense of being ‘caught in the act’, allowing for the intimacy to witness an event at its precipice, a state of incompletion, at its most revered.
