Original artwork description:

"Rifugi post umani" presents small fragments of landscape held within repurposed mechanical metal. These imagined micro-locations transform lifeless debris into hypothetical nests, inhospitable and uninhabitable, yet compelling in their stark beauty.

These abstract, aerial views of imagined, deserted cities evoke a primal need to protect, hide, and rebuild. They stand as symbols of tragedy and deep wounds, but also of hope and resilience. The artist uses powdered pigments, like atmospheric dust, which falls lightly and steadily, marking time. Imagine desert sand traveling and settling between invisible crevices of gravitational architectures, or the way limestone traces the path of water, or rust etches the touch of air. The artwork incorporates found objects, acrylic, watercolor, graphite and gouache on aluminium, canvas, paper and wood.

This round, three-dimensional piece is finished with a steel edge, creating a porthole framing a unique vision. The white and grey tones and the artwork's themes of refuge, shelter and sanctuary make it a thought-provoking addition to any space.

Bring this modern, contemporary expressionist piece into your home and let it spark conversation and reflection.

Materials used:

pigmenti puri, cotone, legno, metallo,
