AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller


"Selene," an artwork inspired by the Greek goddess of the moon, created with eco-print and cochineal dye.

In this painting, a female figure emerges with grace and mystery, skillfully drawn in charcoal. Her face and body are outlined with precise strokes, capturing the serene and enigmatic essence of Selene. Her presence evokes the calm and beauty of the moon illuminating the night.

The background of the painting is created using the ecoprint technique, where leaf imprints intertwine in an organic and harmonious pattern, with shades of green, brown, and yellow that evoke nature. The figure of Selene is further enriched by a cochineal dye, adding a vibrant and sacred touch to the composition.

The leaves and natural dyes seem to blend with the figure of Selene, as if the goddess were inherently connected to nature itself. Nature symbolizes the deep connection between the moon and the earth, between the divine and the natural.

"Selene" is a work that celebrates the ethereal beauty and serene calm of the moon goddess, combining charcoal art with natural techniques of ecoprint and cochineal dyeing to create a unique and captivating vision.

The work was created using ecoprint, an artistic technique that uses leaves, adding other organic materials to create natural prints on fabrics. The process involves arranging the leaves on the fabric, wrapping everything up, and then boiling or steaming to transfer the pigments from the leaves to the fabric. The result is a unique piece, influenced by the variety of leaves used and the fixing technique.
The artwork is made on 100% cotton canvas, with a wooden frame (included) and a wall mounting attachment.
The artwork will be shipped with a certificate of authenticity issued by the artist's studio.

Born from a passion for the interconnection between art and nature, Serena Grassetti is a creator who masterfully blends eco-printing and charcoal to bring to life a unique visual experience. Raised in a small town immersed in natural beauty, Serena has always found inspiration in the delicate balance between humanity and the surrounding environment.

With an artistic training that embraces the traditions of charcoal drawing and the innovation of ecoprinting, Serena has developed a distinctive style that embodies the fusion of technical mastery and environmental sustainability. Her portraits, created with the warmth and texture of leaves, testify to an intimate connection with nature, transforming each piece into a celebration of organic life. Every stroke of charcoal and every leaf imprint tells stories of human emotions intertwined with the fabric of nature.

Through his works, he invites viewers to reflect on the intrinsic beauty of the world around them and on the responsibility to preserve it for future generations.
