Original artwork description:

Two old metal jugs, one white and one blue, hanging from a rusty barbed wire, are forced to stand next to each other, trying to free themselves from a bond that is too tight, but will they succeed in undoing the barbed wire? I leave it to the viewer of the work to find the best solution!

I created this work on a canvas, I treated the background by overlapping several layers of colour to obtain a single sugar-paper blue one, I traced the outline of the painting with chalk and only then did I start painting with oil colours.
I use oil colour by overlaying many thin layers of appropriately diluted colour to create the effects I want.
Once perfectly dry, I finished the surface with a final coat of varnish to make it UV-resistant.

SOSPESI is the series I started painting in 2022, with which I wish to reflect on the suspended moments that life places before us and, through art, overcome the barrier of time, to give value to each moment.

The work does not have a frame but is ready to hang.

The work is signed on the front and back and will be accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
