Ninni Pagano (1969) - Memorie fluide

Ninni Pagano was born in Catania. Always passionate about Wunderkammer and about everything nature offers in its beauty, this passion led him to study in the studio of master Antonio Sciacca, his teacher. It was 2011, and from that moment his artistic career began, propelling him to increasing prominence and earning the esteem of critics such as Aldo Albani, Roberta Filippi of the Orler Gallery, Philippe Daverio, and Daniele Radini Tedeschi. In 2016 his name appears in the prestigious American guide Guide Museums Galleries Artists. After taking part in two Triennials of contemporary art in Rome with his works published in Mondadori catalogs, in 2020 his name appears in the prestigious Atlas of Contemporary Art by De Agostini.
The work is an oil on canvas, signed and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity with the artist's logo, the artwork's characteristics, and the artist's signature at the bottom.
The colors of the painting may vary slightly from the photo due to camera and screen settings.
The artwork is carefully packed with bubble wrap and cardboard, and naturally shipped with a frame.


Fluid Memories
This work by Ninni Pagano, titled "Fluid Memories," depicts a large, realistic eye looming over the scene. From it does not fall a simple tear, but a crystalline flow that feeds an hourglass beneath. This suggests that time is not made of dry sand, but of lived experiences, emotions, and mnemonic "fluidity".
The hourglass rests on an open book, whose pages are covered with dense, nearly indecipherable cursive writing. This element represents the written memory, the personal or universal history that is continually soaked by the passage of time.
The dark background enhances the glow of the iris and the reflections in the glass. The texture of the canvas, clearly visible, gives the work a material, almost tactile dimension.
In short, the work reflects on the subjective nature of time: a resource that is born from inner vision and settles, like ink or water, on the pages of our life.
