Original artwork description:

"Becky and her wandering"
Oil on canvas 50x50
New series (The boys in the zoo of progress)

Becky wanders through the clearing
She is alone and she is not afraid
over there is a wooded forest
A dark house in a desolate land
a curious fawn is seen emerging
Observe, watch Becky in her wandering
Once everything was cared for
Beautiful and lush even the lawn
But this change in people
Soon it became more and more present
More and more alone we have become
With this technology that has spoiled us
Now we are all self-sufficient
Only thoughts become insistent
The thoughts of the world before
And that only now that it is no longer there has our respect.

This new series is dedicated to kids, to today's youth and to their psyche. Despite everything, they take care of their appearance and they do it in a very personal way. I painted them in a dreamlike and fantasy context, as if it were a projection of their thinking and their emotions. The kids at the zoo because the world has fewer and fewer rules, more and more individualistic, this is also due to the advance of progress, which allows us to do most things alone, and therefore tends to isolate us. Everyone seems to grow with themselves and the virtual world, while out there it becomes more and more chaos: the climate, environmental and social problem increases, without anyone making a breakthrough to stop all this. And then strange, gloomy environments are created, drained if we want from their innate vitality. We see very beautiful houses, but abandoned, with uncultivated vegetation that envelops deserted streets, and men with masks that hide their identity. The spaces are filled with strange sounds, and nuns and priests pray for a miracle, while the world seems not to listen. All this fascinates and frightens at the same time, creating a surreal atmosphere that is reflected in the works of art.
