Original artwork description:

"Autumn Nectar", part of Assunta Cassa’s evocative Life Dances series, offers a vibrant tribute to the harvest season and its joyful rituals. In this oil on canvas work, two women are immersed in the age-old tradition of grape stomping — a gesture both symbolic and celebratory, where nature and community come together in rhythm.

The scene is inspired by rural harvest festivals, moments of shared labor and spontaneous festivity that mark the changing of seasons. Through this painting, Cassa reflects on the deep human bond with nature's cycles, where transformation — of fruit into wine, of work into celebration — is an act of beauty and tradition.

The viewer is drawn into the canvas, almost able to hear the laughter, feel the warm sun, and smell the ripened grapes underfoot. The composition invites the senses to participate, offering a visual experience that’s rich in texture and emotional resonance.

Executed with robust palette knife strokes, the artwork radiates vitality. The layered pigments and expressive brushwork bring movement and depth to the scene, celebrating not just the act of winemaking, but its cultural and artisanal significance — a living dance between people and land.

Exhibited at the solo show Infinite Vibrations at the Abbazia di Fiastra in Italy, this painting stands as a testament to joy, connection, and the poetry of tradition.
