Lecturer in Sculpture and sculptor, born in Rome in 1966. She obtained a diploma in Sculpture from the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome in 1988. Having won a national competition in 1993, she initially taught at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna, and since 2002, she has been a lecturer in sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome.

For thirty years, Impei has been creating her own stone works, working in the workshops of the Societ\u00e0 del Travertino Romano and in the quarries in Tivoli.<\/p>\n
As her expressive material, she favours Roman travertine, Lapis Tiburtinus, as it represents Rome’s characteristic stone and is therefore linked to the genius loci, and it complements her own artistic language, which is rooted in primordial organic forms, with a constant reference to the forms of life and the primal living being.<\/p>\n
She has taken part in art exhibitions and stone sculpture symposia, winning prizes in various national and international competitions, and has created monumental stone sculptures.<\/p>\n
She is invited to serve on the judging panels of sculpture competitions and has participated in exhibitions held in natural settings, such as Opera Bosco in Calcata, from 2006 to the present day.<\/p>\n
She promotes the cultural events \u2018Percorsi d\u2019Arte nella Natura\u2019 (Art Trails in Nature), which feature the participation of the best students from the sculpture course at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome, and in December 2021, she co-edited, together with the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome, the scientific publication \u2018Percorsi d\u2019arte nella natura \u2013 Proposte e tendenze nei parchi museo italiani\u2019 (Art Trails in Nature \u2013 Proposals and Trends in Italian Museum Parks), published by Gangemi Editore and edited by Oriana Impei and Antonella Massa.<\/p>\n
In the field of sacred art, for the 2000 Jubilee, together with her artist husband Matthias Omahen, she created the entire liturgical furnishings in Roman travertine for the new Regina Pacis Church in Anguillara Sabazia (Rome), and in 2007, she created the liturgical throne.<\/p>\n
In the Municipality of Palombara Sabina, she created and directed the artistic production project \u2018Percorso d\u2019arte a Castiglione\u2019 in collaboration with the ABA in Rome, which included an international sculpture symposium and the Coesione contemporary art exhibition at Castello Savelli in Palombara Sabina. Together with the Municipality, she has invited foreign art universities to participate in cultural exchanges, including the Universit\u00e4t der K\u00fcnste Berlin and the ABA in Carrara in 2012, the Universidad Miguel Hern\u00e1ndez in Elche, Spain, in 2017, and the Universidad Cat\u00f3lica de Temuco in Chile in 2019.<\/p>\n
