Gabriella Picone is a New York-based artist and designer working in painting, textiles, and ceramics. Picone founded Idda Studio to interpret the traditions and decorative arts of her Siclian heritage through vibrant paintings that honor the women who influenced her. The young studio’s latest endeavor sees the New York local translate her canvases onto a limited-edition series of fabric works—tablecloths, pillows, and beach pareos among them—that channel the inimitable buoyancy of her homeland to help bring people together. Her versatile textiles can be worn as a scarf, pareo, hung on the wall, or used as decoration in the home. She graduated from The Rhode Island School of Design with a BFA in painting.
