Description from the seller
Bas-relief composed of small and precious little faces. It is a unique work of its kind because each tile was painted and assembled manually. The materials used are diplast plaster and acrylic paints. All of it is enclosed within a wooden frame.
The artwork consists of a grid arrangement of small colored tiles, each characterized by a thin, abstract facial imprint. The repetition of the facial motif within the grid suggests themes of identity, diversity, and unity. The structured 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 abstract portraiture. The use of color is particularly striking, emphasizing both contrast and cohesion. The piece could be seen as a commentary on how faces, while unique, are part of a larger mosaic of the 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 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, and clay, revealing a deep connection with his cultural roots. His work tackles contemporary social issues, often reflecting on current tragedies. Alibrio reinterprets the recognizable through a logic of fragmentation, stimulating critical reflection. His mastery of materials and rigorous approach contribute to developing an autonomous artistic language capable of expressing tension and strength.
"In the dialogue between matter and meaning, sculpture becomes a fragment of truth, capable of telling the stories of our contemporaneity and the roots that unite us with the past." - S. Alibrio
The work will be provided with a certificate of authenticity and will be shipped inside a rigid container.
