Biography Melanie Francesca

After graduating from Venice Art Academy, Melanie Francesca has exhibited across Europe and the Middle East: in Dubai under the patronage of the minister of the culture his highness Nahayan Bin Mubarak Al Nahayan (www.enterinthebox.com) Her concept of being an artist is circular, comprehensive and embraces the meaning of creativity in many expressions like writing, drawing and painting. As a novelist, she has published 13 books from 1998 to 2007, among them 9 novels. She is also a TV personality that worked in several talkshows as a character and as opinionist (interview and talkshows).
In art, the mystery revealed through the path of the narration, between conceptual and figurative, is an aim to speak and interact with the audience in a language that is immediate, strong, communicative and, consequently, understandable. Art for Melanie is not a question mark that is thrown at the audience, but rather a magic realm, a dreamlike voyage and a suspension of the spirit in beauty. Art is a suggestion, a philosophy and an answer.

In 2017 has published L’Occidentale with Cairo editore, aN hilarious comedy about the life in Dubai.

She lives in Dubai with her family.
