My latest project has been an incredible collaboration. It has been a privilege to work with the St Francis Day Foundation, the Italian Academy Foundation, the Sacro Convento di Assisi and the Museo di Roma to bring the show Laudato Sie: Nature and science to life at the Palazzo Braschi, Rome. From perusing […]
The Union League Club Gallery in NYC is presenting a show of my Opera artwork on silk in the month of September. Following is the Gallery’s announcement. Claudia Palmira’s art on silk, originally made for the luxury brand Clù, presents a seamless blend of haute couture, fine art, and the emotive power of the opera, […]
Everything needs a refresh—our outfits, our homes, our websites. That’s why, the launch of my Zodiac Collection for Clù came packaged with a brand-new website. Clù’s new look has a simpler, easier-to-navigate version of the original website, with new photography and videos of the products.
On a road trip down from the Emilia-Romagna region, Perugia made a charming pit stop. There is never too little time for beauty – especially with the promise of seeing a Klimt work in person on display in the town’s historic center. After a quick and delicious Umbrian lunch, my son and I sought out […]
More than a strict definition of personality types, astrology is an archetypal language to me. The ancient symbols of the 12 signs inspired my new Zodiac collection of oversized square silk “paintings”. It all began with black sumo ink and paper. With brushstrokes, I formed each astrological symbol by hand on cotton paper. These calligraphic […]
I’ve hosted Vision Mapping sessions in some special places – but this recent one was really unforgettable. In the heart of Prati, the design store CARGO was the destination for a dream mapping workshop. As always, this was designed to guide attendees through the creative process of making a collage that authentically reflect their deepest, […]

May, a month brimming with the promise of new beginnings and vibrant energy, has always been a time of exploration and discovery for me. How thrilling after a trip to Portugal to find myself in beautiful, timeless Tuscany to prepare for an artistic exhibition. During a residence in the town that was home of the […]
Welcome to my Rome Studio. To visit in person and experience the art and works yourself, please make an appointment.
It’s not every day that an artist date occurs with two art journalists. On an early spring day, Rosanna Fumai and Fabiola Cinque met me in my Studio, with Rosanna’s high school daughter and my teen son Ludovico. Of course an interview and lots of photos followed. After the Studio visit, we were off in […]
With all respect to my adopted home of Rome, and my native New York, Paris is still the chicest, most livable and beautiful city in the world. Charming beauty and sweet whimsy are evident in almost every arrondissement, and creativity of all kinds surges through the streets in a quiet but colorful way. My time […]
