A striking assemblage of leather and acrylic on rubber-coated canvas, Carol Rama's *Luogo e segni* exemplifies her bold and tactile approach to material experimentation. The work's unconventional combination of industrial and organic elements creates a tension between the sensual and the abject, inviting the viewer to engage with its raw, visceral surface. Rama's layering of textures and marks reflects her lifelong subversion of traditional artistic boundaries, transforming everyday materials into charged expressions of the body and desire.
