AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Unique and original opera.
Mixed media on canvas (high-quality wax pastels, acrylics, inks).
Anti-UV matt fixative varnish.
Hand-signed with an authenticity statement.
White polyester canvas 280 grams 53x76 cm.
Painted area size 46x63 cm.
It will be carefully packed, rolled in a sturdy, rigid cardboard tube.
The shipment can be monitored with a tracking number.
The artwork is sold without a frame and without a border.

The works originate from an artisanal and experimental process that makes each canvas unique. The surface is carefully prepared and embellished with selected natural papers and textural insertions, creating an irregular, three-dimensional base rich in texture that enhances the structure of the canvas. Subsequently, this surface is worked on in a non-uniform manner using mixed media, where water-soluble pastels play a central role, creating layers, transparencies, and contrasts in dialogue with the underlying material. Each piece reflects a balance between technical control and material spontaneity, marking the artist's transition from a well-established digital practice to a more tactile, artisanal, and material approach.

Giulia Piras began her studies at the Faculty of Biological Sciences due to her interest in naturalist themes. However, she chose to change direction and attend the Academy of Fine Arts, where she deepened and practiced her passion for scientific illustration. She continued her studies specializing in Illustration at ISIA in Urbino. Today, she lives in the Marche countryside, Italy, surrounded by the Apennines, oak forests, and blooming meadows. She collaborates with publishing houses, magazines, companies, and advertising agencies. She was selected for the Renner Prize for contemporary art. In 2021, she won the 'Digital Inclusion' contest organized by Posterheroes. In 2025, she was selected for the Annual of Image Authors and for the BRAW (Bologna Ragazzi Award) Amazing Bookshelf.

Any color differences may be due to lighting conditions, monitor settings, or the camera used. The actual shades of the colors may therefore vary slightly from those displayed on the screen. Some images are photomontages created solely for illustrative purposes. The proportions and sizes depicted may not precisely reflect the actual dimensions of the artwork.
