    Description

    A few years ago, Sting created a song called "Russians" and one of the verses is "If the Russians love their children too", taking the political context out of the poem and extracting what's most important, we're left with... love, that it is a universal and timeless energy that unites us all without which we cannot live.
    This is a picture that speaks of love, of a love without color, odor, or creeds, which speaks of love as a means of sustenance for the human soul and beyond.
    "Wilson's family" is an attempt to allegorically represent love. Wilson was the love found by Tom Hanks for a Volleyball in the movie "Castaway" as the only friend and that represents the intrinsic need to love and belong and that can save us from the most inhospitable place we can be.

    It'll ship on a wooden crate, ready to hang, with hooks on the back, gallery wrapped and stretched on a supported wooden frame, no need for framing cause the edges are painted, with Certificate of Authenticity included.
    Shipping in 7 days.

  • About this artist

    Concept

    "I want to be able to recreate not what I see, but what I feel, because the essential is invisible to the eyes."

    I am an artist who cultivates and expresses my passion for painting through my natural curiosity and heightened intuition. My artistic approach is characterized by emotional sensitivity and a strong instinctive drive. I strive for subjectivity in my work, avoiding objective assessments, and I use a language that is diverse and rich in values. The final results of my artwork are the result of studio work, but they are mainly shaped by my experiences, which linger not only in my memory, but also on a sensory level. These experiences are sublime and come unexpectedly, purging my subconscious processes. I have the courage to allow what emerges and transforms to be the object of artistic creation, and this flow is my artistic secret.
    I usually create from within, from what comes from within, and I have discovered that abstract expressionism is the deepest and most authentic way of expressing myself. As abstract art is an activity that is often carried out in solitude, it is natural that the themes and approaches that inspire the artist are very personal. This creates a close relationship between the art and the essence of the artist, at least in my experience. Objective evaluations are excluded from this statement, nothing is ever just what it seems. However, my creative range goes from surrealism to symbolism or from Neo-expressionism to simple landscapes. This is not due to a lack of commitment to my art, to not remaining in a single style, but rather reflects my conviction that artistic expression should be a reflection of the artist's personality and soul. I've always been attracted to free movements, forms and interpretations and that sums me up: I'm a free man of my time.
    As already mentioned, I internalize my experiences, emotions and environment to give authenticity to my creations and this process may seem egocentric, but it is an intimate and intuitive act that comes close to the primordial. Although I don't always feel this impulse, I'm getting better at interpreting this inner vocation of mine, this call that comes unexpectedly.
    I adhere to the maxim: "I want to recreate not what I see, but what I feel", recognizing the invisible essence of things. My inspiration comes from books, films, the media, personal encounters, life experiences, introspection and nature. Metaphysics piques my interest. I absorb emotions, experiences and my surroundings to animate my creations, which serve as raw material.

    So it's simple and intuitive. I just have to be aware of my surroundings, my personal state and, above all, have a bit of courage.
