AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Santicri has participated in numerous internationally renowned art exhibitions. Among the most significant, in 2022 he exhibited 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, thus 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 included among the top three most searched names on the Catawiki platform, a further sign of the growing appreciation for his work. These recognitions highlight Santicri’s talent and the increasing visibility in the contemporary art scene.
Medium: resin and marble powder
Dimensions: L30 x H21 x P2.5 cm

Certificate of authenticity - hand-signed
“BOOM!” by Santicri reinterprets the pop language of comics, transforming a graphic exclamation into a three-dimensional sculptural object.
The contrast between the explosive form and the marbled black-and-white creates a visual short circuit between pop lightness and classical materiality.
The veins crossing the surface introduce an element of imperfection that breaks the purity of the sign, suggesting an explosion not only visual but conceptual: a fracture in the language of imagery.
The result is an immediate, ironic and powerful work, capable of uniting pop aesthetics, design and sculpture in a single visual impact.
The edition number shipped may not correspond to the one shown in the photo.
The work is prepared for wall mounting with a dedicated hook.

The artist established himself in 2024 as one of the most sought-after names on Catawiki, immediately following icons like 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 a resin sculpture craftsman. There emerged an 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 pop art paintings and sculptures, contemporary art.
"It's never easy to classify one’s art; I try to convey what my eyes see, my way of perceiving what surrounds me, and I rework it with a design that suits the modern era: 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.
