Santicri was recognized among the Best-Selling Artists of 2024 by Artmayeur, one of the most renowned platforms in the art world.

This series of works, which is usually offered by galleries in larger formats and at prices above €10,000, has been adapted exclusively for Catawiki in more modest versions.

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

The work stands out for its use of eggshells, white and coated in red metallic leaf, used as color containers. The egg, a symbol of fragility and origin, here is transformed into a release instrument: its cracking becomes a creative gesture, and the freed color spreads across the canvas like uncontrolled energy. The fragments of the shells, still visible, act as physical traces of the event, making the act of painting 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.

His works are sold worldwide, collaborating with galleries in Italy and Europe.
His art is widely appreciated and cannot be missing among collectors of street art, pop art, and contemporary art paintings and sculptures.
"It is never easy to classify one’s art; I try to convey what my eyes see, my way of perceiving what surrounds me, and I rework it with a design that fits well with modern times: impactful and memorable."
