Italy, 1983
Miriam Patrussi, known artistically as “Chichia Art”, was born in Arezzo in 1983. She is a self-taught artist who graduated from the State Institute of Art in 2002 (fashion section). For the past 20 years she has worked as a graphic designer for prints and embroidery at a clothing company, so her art is closely connected with her professional work.
In 2009 she won a shared 5th prize at the “Chimera Arte Arezzo” competition. Over time she has taken part in various events such as Marcenando, Artinponte, drawing contests, and flea markets, performing live painting sessions.
In March 2026 she received an Honorable Mention at the National Painting Biennial of Foiano della Chiana, and in the same town she also participated in the contemporary art exhibition “Perché Donna”.
