AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Santicri has participated in numerous art exhibitions of international repute. Among the most significant, in 2022 he showcased 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 listed among the top three most searched names on the Catawiki platform, another sign of the growing appreciation for his work. These recognitions highlight the extraordinary talent and the increasing visibility of Santicri in the contemporary art scene.
Santicri-artist
Technique: RESIN, MARBLE POWDER; GOLD LEAF INSERTS
Dimensions: H32 x L17 x P9 cm
Condition: new
Certificate of authenticity - hand-signed
Edition: Limited edition
The sculpture is finished with a two-component varnish to give greater gloss and durability; the work features hand-decorated gold leaf inserts. Each piece has unique veining compared to others in the same edition.
The artist emulates the Japanese technique of Kintsugi, born from the idea that from imperfection and a wound a greater form of aesthetic and inner perfection can arise, evoking the symbol of resilience.
The serial number shipped may not correspond to the one in the photo.
Professional insured shipping.
The artist established himself in 2024 as one of the most sought-after names on Catawiki, immediately following 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, in the Marche region, the Italian artist pursued a path that, between studies in surveying and architecture, led him to collaborate with a craftsman of resin sculptures. There arose the ever-stronger 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 and sculptures, pop art, and contemporary art.
"It is never easy to classify one’s own art; I try to convey what my eyes see, my way of perceiving what surrounds me, and I rework it with a design that marries well with modern times: impactful and memorable."
Seller's Story
Communicating through a work goes beyond the message: it is the very heart of art.
My works move between social messages and pure pop, often with a touch of irony. I try to reinterpret what surrounds me with a contemporary, impactful, and memorable visual language.
Beauty, for me, is a bridge between people. In my works I seek to capture that sense of connection and recognition that comes from the harmony hidden in forms.
Resin is today the material I prefer: it allows me to experiment, to fuse design and sculpture, to explore new aesthetic possibilities. This ongoing research pushes me beyond my comfort zone, keeping creative curiosity alive.
I create to give shape to an inner impulse, to make visible what usually remains invisible: time, work, and experience that give meaning to our journey.
