Roxy Inthebox
 
 
About the Artist

Roxy in the box is a Neapolitan artist who pays particular attention to different realities of her city. She is principally interested in customary law and its expressions, in mass-media phenomena, in paradoxical contradictions of image culture and its dangerous effects on social texture. Her art could be described as activist because of her attitude to show up the real nature of these reassuring and hypocritical phenomena. Roxy’s main weapon is irony and her distinctive feature is a personal style marked by vivacity of colour. The artist takes care of every little detail – titles are essential components of her works – and she doesn’t be afraid of portraying herself as a target to strike.


this personal exhibition titled PULP…A(c)TIONS where Roxy focuses on Neapolitan reality and on different and unsuccessful attempts to analyze and to represent its socio-ideological and cultural heirlooms. With her works she exposes the prejudices that hide the authentic soul of Naples.


With her irreverent but playful art, Roxy alerts us to risks of conventional reasoning about serious problems; she helps us to deride the power of media – interesting only in advertising logical – and to point out its deforming effects on reality.
