Salvatore Alibrio, Fuori dal coro, a unique piece from 2026 in mixed media using plaster-resin and acrylic paints, hand-signed, 39 × 30 × 3.5 cm, made in Italy.
Description from the seller
Bas-relief composed of small and precious faces. It is a one-of-a-kind work because each tessera was painted and inserted manually onto a wooden support. The materials used are gypsum plaster (resin) and acrylic paints, all high-quality materials, ideal for furnishing contemporary spaces.
The artwork consists of a grid arrangement of small colored tiles, each characterized by a slender and abstract facial imprint. The repetition of the motif within the grid suggests themes of identity, diversity and unity. The textured surface adds depth and invites tactile exploration, while the overall structure evokes a sense of order and rhythm. This artwork could explore the intersection between individuality and collectivity through the lens of the abstract portrait. The use of color is particularly striking, emphasizing both contrast and cohesion. The piece could be seen as a commentary on how faces, though unique, form part of a larger mosaic of human experience. It invites viewers to reflect on the diversity of expression and emotion within an apparently uniform scheme.
Salvatore Alibrio, born in 1991, is an artist who has developed a significant sculptural research, participating in exhibitions and symposia, including those promoted by the Academy of Fine Arts of Catania. His practice explores artistic language through an iconographic vocabulary that unites tradition and experimentation. He uses materials such as stone, marble, clay and resin, revealing a deep connection with his cultural roots. His work addresses contemporary social issues, often reflecting on current tragedies. Alibrio reinterprets the recognizable through a logic of fragmentation, stimulating critical reflections. His mastery of materials and rigorous approach contribute to developing an autonomous artistic language, capable of expressing tension and force.
The work will be provided with a certificate of authenticity and will be shipped inside a rigid outer packaging.
