The “Touch from Above” series is inspired by acts of kindness. The textured works resemble swirls of frosting, turning that feeling --when someone does something genuinely kind for you -- into something visually sweet. The repetition seen throughout Gianna D’s work symbolizes how one thing alone may seem miniscule but together, they make something bigger. A simple act – a smile, a phone call, a listening ear -- may seem trivial, but if everyone spread a little kindness, what a difference we would make.
