I created this work on a canvas, treated it with different colours to create a unique, three-dimensional base, traced the outline of the painting with chalk and only then began painting with oil colours.
I use oil colours by overlaying many very thin layers of appropriately diluted colour to create the effects I want.
The surface of the work was finished with a final layer of satin varnish to protect the work.
I depicted an old aluminium kettle, a red oiler and a rusty blue tin coffee pot, all hanging by a thread.
I took the objects out of their context to place them in a new dimension, that of memory: they are all objects that remind me of loved ones from my childhood!
I imagined that they were hanging by a thread, at the mercy of time, just as my memories are, which I would not like to forget but which fade more and more with time.
SOSPESI is the new series that I started painting in 2022, with which I wish to reflect on the suspended moments that life places before us and, through art, to overcome the barrier of time, to give value to each instant.
The work is unframed to create even more of a sense of freedom.
The work is signed on the front and back and will be accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
for non-EU shipping, you must wait for authorisation from the Ministry of Cultural Heritage, which may entail a delay of a few days
