Santicri - "Creation from Chaos" #75

Santicri has participated in numerous internationally renowned art exhibitions. Among the most significant, in 2022 he exhibited his works at the prestigious Palazzo Grillo in Genoa, and in 2023 he was present at the International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) in New York, thereby expanding his visibility in both national and international contexts.
Santicri was recognized among the Best-Selling Artists of 2024 by Artmayeur, one of the most renowned platforms in the art world. In the same year, he was also included among the top three most-searched names on the platform Catawiki, another sign of the growing appreciation for his work. These recognitions highlight the artist’s extraordinary talent and his increasingly prominent presence in the contemporary art scene.

This series of works, which is usually offered in larger gallery formats and at prices above 10,000 euros, has been adapted exclusively for Catawiki in more compact versions. This choice aims to make the artist’s art accessible to a broader audience, while preserving the essence and quality of the works.

Creation from Chaos stages a generative act in which the painting material is born from breakage and dispersion. The surface of the canvas is traversed by splashes and drips that spread instinctively, creating a dynamic and layered composition, without a dominant center but charged with visual tension.

The work stands out for its use of eggshells, white and coated in red metallic leaf, employed as color containers. Symbol of fragility and origin, the egg is here transformed into a tool of release: its fracture becomes a creative gesture, and the liberated color expands on the canvas like uncontrolled energy. The fragments of the shells, still visible, act as physical traces of the event, making the painting act irreversible and tangible.

The tension between the purity of white, the metallic intensity of red, and the moving chromatic matter suggests a reflection on birth as a chaotic and necessary process. In Creation from Chaos, destruction and creation coincide, and painting asserts itself as a place of transformation.

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