Three-dimensional canvas

The work plays on the boundary between image and action, transforming a painterly sign into something physical and real. The brush, suspended within the canvas, freezes the creative moment and makes it permanent, as if the artist’s gesture were never finished.

The visual language recalls pop and immediate aesthetics, with stylized figures and bold colors, but is interrupted by a three-dimensional element that breaks the surface and pushes the work out of the frame.

There is not only representation but intervention: the artist does not simply paint, he enters the work. This creates a tension between control and spontaneity, between constructed image and real gesture.

More than a dialogue with art history, here there is a focus on the process of making art itself, made visible and frozen in an instant.

The work is a digital painting on 350 g/m² canvas, treated with oil paint to give the impression of a three-dimensional brushstroke.
The brush is firmly attached to the canvas with screws.
The frame is not included with the canvas.

"It is never easy to classify one’s own art; I try to convey what my eyes see, my way of looking at what surrounds me, and I rework it with a design that blends well with modern times: impactful and memorable."
