AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This intriguing artwork by Salvatore Alibrio is a sculptural relief on a plaque with organic, irregular contours that give it an almost archaeological appearance. The color scheme is dominated by deep shades of mauve and purple, enriched by iridescent glints of turquoise and turquoise-green that enhance its forms. In the center, a stylized female figure emerges gracefully, whose sinuous curves of the torso and legs evoke sensuality and fluidity. In the absence of a head and arms, attention is focused on the silhouette. A large winged insect, a bee, is placed with emphasis on the figure’s belly, creating an unexpected focal point. The background features a geometric motif reminiscent of a honeycomb, introducing an element of order and structure. The work skillfully balances the delicacy of the female nude with the rawness of the entomological element, suggesting themes of nature, fertility, metamorphosis, or the fragility of existence. The glossy, enamelled finish contrasts with the rough edges, enriching the overall texture. The artist’s signature is placed in the lower left, a discreet seal on a piece with strong visual and symbolic impact.
Salvatore Alibrio, born in 1991, is an artist who has developed significant sculptural research, participating in exhibitions and symposia, including those promoted by the Academy of Fine Arts of Catania. His practice explores artistic language through an iconographic vocabulary that blends tradition and experimentation. He uses materials such as stone, marble, and clay, revealing a deep connection with his cultural roots. His work addresses contemporary social issues, often reflecting on current tragedies. Alibrio reinterprets the recognizable through a logic of fragmentation, encouraging critical reflection. His mastery of materials and rigorous approach contribute to developing an autonomous artistic language capable of expressing tension and strength.
The work will come with a certificate of authenticity and will be shipped in a rigid protective envelope.
Seller's Story
In the dialogue between matter and meaning, sculpture becomes a fragment of truth, capable of telling the stories of our contemporaneity and the roots that connect us to the past.
