Original artwork description:

Berta and the old building,
oil on canvas cm 50x50.

And Berta played
She played with her friends
In a garden she was
Full of herbs and ancient plants
In the distance a building
Probably from a bygone era
It was tall and slightly pink
Now uninhabited by people
Now we don't care
Of the past that was
Closed between four walls
Watching the square screen
Instead Berta plays outside
Putting her imagination into it
They chase each other calling the colors
Of real life what joy!

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.

is product is painted on a cut canvas measuring 60x60 cm in total and ready to be stretched on a frame. It can be sold either without a frame and have cheaper shipping costs (contact me for information) or it can be applied on a frame at the time of sale that measures 50x50x2 cm. the shipping costs indicated in the platform price list refer to the piece sold with a frame. The photographed image is cut as if it were already on a frame and therefore 50x50 cm. You can therefore see in the photo that the canvas is not stretched for this very reason. Before being shipped, a photo of the final work will be shown once it has been stretched and stretched on the frame.
