Caliendo Gianluca " Linfame21 " - Orly

At the heart of an abstract artwork, 'Lust' manifests with a powerful visual force. The canvas is a chromatic battlefield where deep black and fiery red clash and blend skillfully, evoking intense passions and unspoken desires. The spatula technique gives the composition a three-dimensional, almost tactile texture, as if the material itself had been sculpted by the fury of emotion. Every brushstroke, or rather, every spatula stroke, leaves a dense, textured mark that adds depth and drama to the scene. Elements of this chromatic vortex emerge in the form of 'golden bubbles.' These luminous spheres are not mere decorations but appear as sparkling promises, fleeting refuges within the tumult, fleeting reflections of purity or ephemeral pleasure. The golden bubbles dance, suspended between abyssal black and volcanic red, drawing the eye and suggesting the intrinsic duality of lust: its exhilarating nature and its potentially destructive side. It is a bold exploration of the boundaries between sensual pleasure and unconfessed darkness, conveyed through a powerful visual language and a daring color palette that leaves no one indifferent.

Signed by Gianluca Caliendo, a master of contemporary figurative art, this painting is part of the most evocative vein of his work, celebrated in international events such as Maestri a Miami and Star dell'arte a Los Angeles. It is present in private collections throughout Europe and the United States.

If signed 'Linfame21', the self-taught artist Gianluca Caliendo, a challenge to the illness that struck him and which he faced with courage.
Originally from Salerno, he has lived in the province of Cuneo since 2012. Married with two children, passionate about art and life, he dedicates himself to painting later in life after a not exactly rosy period.
In 2021, he was diagnosed with lymphoma (hence the pseudonym Linfame21, under which he signs his works). He turned to art as a tool to fight the disease.

The painting is ready to be hung.
