Hedera(pseudonimo) - Anatomia Silentii

Vanitas, Memento Mori
"Anatomia Silentii"
The ivy, tenacious and ancient, crosses the skull; it is living memory. The flowers become the fragile act of resistance against dissolution, while silence settles like fine dust on every form.
Silence is what remains when the human voice ceases to exist and the natural world reclaims its own secret language.
Gouache technique with a layered, tactile rendering that recalls ancient painting while being of recent creation.
Elegant ebonized wooden frame, burr inlays with refined guilloché decoration, produced most probably in the very early years of the twentieth century.
