“Decoded” transforms an iconic image into a visual system made of signs, points, and modulations. The figure emerges and dissolves at the same time, as if translated into a language intermediate between painting and code.

The surface, built through a regular weave, fragments the image to render it unstable: what from close distance appears as structure and repetition, from afar recomposes into a recognizable presence. The work therefore lives in a double reading, oscillating between abstraction and figuration.

“Decoded” reflects on how today we perceive and reconstruct images: no longer as fixed forms, but as data that can be broken down, reinterpreted and continuously regenerated. An icon that is no longer immutable, but open to infinite possibilities of vision.

Oil on canvas 350 g/m², stretched on a spruce wooden frame. Frame not included.

The artist established himself in 2024 as one of the most sought-after names on Catawiki, immediately ranking behind icons such as Kaws and Banksy. His art stands out in an exclusive context that includes other categories of excellence, such as Rolex, Lego, Louis Vuitton, Porsche, Eames, Macallan, Tintin, Cartier and Pokémon. A talent recognized not only for creative value but also as one of the most promising investments of the year.

Born in 1992 in Macerata, Marche, the Italian artist followed a path that, between studies in Surveying and Architecture, led him to collaborate with a resin sculpture artisan. There arose the increasingly strong need to find himself and unleash his creativity.
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’s 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."
