Original artwork description:

Drawing made entirely in pencil in contemporary figurative style, inspired by "Right You Are (if you think so)", the play by Luigi Pirandello, one of the most important playwrights of the 20th century, Italian writer and poet, awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1934. The scenography of the novel is built in the context of a small world of 'gossips' who see the certainties and taboos of knowledge in crisis, commonplaces not of what is but of what appears. The protagonists, in turn, a gentleman, his mother-in-law and a wife (whom no one ever sees) have their "truths", in contrast to the vision of that provincial society. A century later, Pirandello's fictional-naturalistic comedy is still a powerful metaphor for the uncertainty of relationships.
