Three-dimensional canvas

The work plays on the boundary between image and action, transforming a pictorial sign into something physical and real. The brush, suspended within the canvas, freezes the creative moment and makes it permanent, as if the artist’s gesture had never ended.

The visual language recalls the pop and immediate aesthetic, with stylized figures and clear colors, but is interrupted by a three-dimensional element that breaks the surface and brings the work out of the frame.

There is not only representation, but intervention: the artist does not simply paint, he enters the work. This creates a tension between control and spontaneity, between constructed imagery and real gesture.

More than a dialogue with the history of art, here there is a focus on the very process of making art, made visible and frozen in an instant.

The work is a digital painting on 350 g canvas worked with oil paint to give the impression of the three-dimensional brushstroke.
The brush is firmly attached to the canvas with screws.
The frame is not included with the canvas.

"It is never easy to classify one’s art; I try to convey what my eyes see, my way of seeing what surrounds me, and I rework it with a design that fits well with modern times: impactful and memorable."
