Dreams are the royal road to the unconscious.” Sigmund Freud
Gallery70 is pleased to present Dream Anatomy, a solo exhibition by Alessia Podgorica, featuring a new body of work spanning painting, drawing and digital processes.
At the center of Podgorica’s practice lies the human figure—fragmented, transformed, and situated within symbolic environments that oscillate between reality and imagination. Her compositions unfold as open-ended visual fields where bodies, organic forms, and familiar elements coexist in dreamlike constellations.
The exhibition proposes a dream anatomy—not as the dissection of a singular dream, but as an exploration of the structures, rhythms, and symbolic logic through which the subconscious takes form. Through a visual language rooted in figuration and informed by a surrealist sensibility, Podgorica creates images that resist fixed meaning, inviting viewers into a space shaped by memory, intuition, and psychological reflection.
Working across traditional and contemporary media, the artist navigates between gesture and construction, allowing forms to emerge, dissolve, and reconfigure. In this process, the body becomes both subject and metaphor—a site where personal experience intersects with broader symbolic and archetypal dimensions.
Rather than presenting a linear narrative, Dream Anatomy offers a fluid and open visual experience in which meaning unfolds through the viewer’s encounter with the work.
