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 attended the International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) in New York, thereby increasing 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 listed among the top three most searched names on the Catawiki platform, another sign of the growing appreciation for his work. These recognitions highlight the extraordinary talent and the ever-increasing visibility of Santicri in the contemporary art scene.

Dimensions: 90x50x15 cm
The work is accompanied by a hand-signed Certificate of Authenticity
Unique Work

This work arises from a simple tension: what happens when a historical image stops being untouchable?

The classic painting is “opened,” traversed by a faucet that does not add, but subtracts. It is not a decorative gesture: it is a cut in time. The image no longer remains still, but transforms into a flow.

The drop is not only matter; it is memory slipping away. The past does not disappear, but changes state: from icon to liquid.

The work does not set antiquity and contemporary in opposition. It forces them to coexist in the same point, in the same moment.
It is not a quotation, it is a transformation.

The artwork will be shipped with insurance and carefully packed.

The drop is shipped separately from the faucet, to be screwed onto the faucet (by hand), thus ensuring a safer shipment.

The work on 350 g canvas is mounted on a wooden frame, the faucet is iron, the drop is resin with an iron core, frame not included.

SHIPPING INSURED!.
The package is carefully packed,

The artist established himself in 2024 as one of the most sought-after names on Catawiki, immediately behind icons such as Kaws and Banksy. His art stands out in an exclusive context that includes other realms 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 pursued a path that, through studies in Geometer and Architecture, led him to collaborate with a resin sculpture artisan. There arose the 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, pop art, and contemporary art paintings and sculptures.
"It is 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 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.
