Behind every milestone are the people who give it meaning. ✨

At the grand opening of FAB300 in Novara, Italy, three talented colleagues from GlobalWafers – MEMC Electronic Materials S.p.A. transformed creativity into a language of its own — interpreting the interplay of light and shadow where technology meets art.
Following the emotional abstraction of Giuseppe Barbale and the “rebirth” energy conveyed through Roberto Taglialatela’s acrylic art, the third artist — Erika Cardano — captures the delicate balance between authenticity and disguise through her refined artistic lens. 💫

Born in Galliate, Italy, and a graduate of the Novara Academy of Fine Arts, Erika studied and created under the guidance of several distinguished artists, including Oronzo Mastro, Wilma Kun, Paolo Raciti, Giugi Bassani, and Carlo Tacchini. 👩‍🎨

Her work revolves around the theme of identity and duality —beneath the mask lies truth, yet also the self we long for others to see.
Through masks, self-portraits, cut-out images of herself, and body painting, she delicately portrays the emotions that exist between the eyes and lips — guiding viewers to look beyond conventional forms of communication and into the artist’s inner world, evoking a new visual and emotional experience. 🎭

During the FAB300 opening ceremony, Erika incorporated wafer elements into her artwork. Its mirror-like sheen and layered reflections became a source of inspiration — symbolizing how, in this technological age, humanity continues to see and rediscover itself. 🔮

She shared, “The aesthetic qualities of the wafer perfectly reflect my creative philosophy — it evokes emotion, allowing me to translate inner resonance through color and form, and inviting viewers to recognize their own feelings within.” 🎨

This opening not only revealed the inner world of an artist but also showcased another dimension of technology — one that inspires creativity, connects emotion, and celebrates the harmony between innovation and humanity. 🌈

每一個里程碑的背後，都有讓它更具意義的人。✨

在義大利諾瓦拉 FAB300 的開幕典禮上，三位來自廠內的藝術家，以創作為語言，詮釋了科技與藝術相遇時的光與影。承接 Giuseppe Barbale 抽象筆觸的情感流動，以及 Roberto Taglialatela 壓克力畫作中象徵「重生」的能量，第三位登場的Erika Cardano，以細膩的視角捕捉真實與偽裝之間的微妙平衡。💫

Erika 出生於義大利加利亞泰，畢業於諾瓦拉美術學院，她曾在多位藝術家的指導下學習與創作，其中包括 Oronzo Mastro、Wilma Kun、Paolo Raciti、Giugi Bassani 和 Carlo Tacchini。👩‍🎨

她的創作圍繞著「身份與雙重性」的主題—面具之下藏著真實，也映著我們渴望被看見的自己。她以面具、自畫像、自己裁切過的照片與身體彩繪為媒介，透過眼神與嘴部的細膩刻畫，試圖引導觀者將注意力從既定的溝通方式中抽離，進而凝視藝術家的靈魂，感受全新的視覺與情感體驗。🎭

在 FAB300 的開幕典禮上，Erika 將晶圓的元素融入創作之中。那如鏡面般的光澤與層疊的反射，激發了她的靈感，也象徵著人類在科技時代中看見自我。🔮

她說：「晶圓的美學特質完美呼應了我的創作理念——它能喚起情感，使我以畫筆傳達內心的共鳴，也希望觀者能在其中看見自己的感受。」🎨

這場開幕典禮不僅讓我們看見藝術家的內在世界，也再次體現科技的另一面——它能啟發創造力、連結情感，也象徵科技與人文之間的美好連結 。🌈
