Original artwork description:

An original piece from the series “The earth seen from space”, oil on canvas. 50 x 40 cm, 2019.

This series of paintings is inspired by satellite photographs that today, with tools like Google Earth, allow anyone the virtual exploration of the planet. Starting from those real images, I rework those aerial views, inventing new codes of representation and new decorative elements. The map is distorted, deformed, altered as if it were a past memory, but something of that place is still recognizable.

Summary of features:

Thickness of the canvas: 2 cm
Finishing: protective varnish
Location and year created: Turin, Italy - 2019
Certificate of Authenticity: included, with signature of the artist on photograph
Edges of the canvas: painted in continuity with the surface (the canvas can be hung without frame)
Signed: on the front, bottom right corner

Materials used:

oil on canvas
