Santicri has participated in numerous art exhibitions of international standing.

In the same year, he was also listed among the top three most searched names on the platform Catawiki, another sign of the growing appreciation for his work.

Unique Work
This work fuses painting and object, transforming an immediate and recognizable image into a physical gesture suspended in time. The brush, embedded in the canvas, is not just a tool but a living trace of the action, as if the mark had stopped exactly at the moment it was happening.
The neutral face, universal icon of detachment and emotional ambiguity, is reinterpreted through a broad and imperfect stroke, crossed by drips that crack its apparent staticity. The expression remains suspended: neither positive nor negative, but blocked in an intermediate zone where emotion and the absence of emotion coexist. What normally communicates immediacy in the digital realm becomes something more unstable and human.
The insertion of the brush breaks the two-dimensional surface and moves the work into a hybrid dimension, between painting and sculpture. From this emerges a reflection on gesture as a real act, on matter as a trace of time, and on contemporary neutrality as an emotional mask: an apparently empty expression that, precisely in its fragile balance, ends up telling of tension, distance, and vulnerability.
SHIPPING INSURED!
The package is carefully packed. The canvas is shipped already mounted on a wooden frame; frame not included.
The artist established himself in 2024 as one of the most sought-after names on Catawiki, immediately ranking after 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 Geomatics and Architecture, led him to collaborate with an artisan who crafts resin sculptures. 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 paintings and sculptures of street art, pop art, 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 harmonizes 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.
