AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Santicri has participated in numerous art exhibitions of international repute. 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, thereby 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 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 increasing visibility of Santicri in the contemporary art scene.
Technique: Resin and marble dust
Dimensions: H13 x L15 x D13 cm
Condition: new
Certificate of authenticity - hand-signed
Edition: limited edition 100ex
A simple, recognizable figure is transformed into something different. The teddy bear, a symbol of affection and protection, keeps its shape but loses its function: it is no longer something to touch or live with lightly.
The surface completely changes the perception of the work. What from a distance appears familiar becomes distant up close, almost inaccessible. This creates a direct contrast between what we know and what we see.
The work plays precisely on this tension: on the one hand it attracts, on the other it keeps at a distance. Thus, an image linked to childhood is reread in a contemporary key, becoming something more complex and less reassuring.

Born in 1992 in Macerata, Marche, the Italian artist pursued a path that, between studies as a Surveyor and Architecture, led him to collaborate with a resin sculpture artisan. There arose the growing need to find himself and unleash his creativity.
His works are sold worldwide, collaborating with galleries in Italy and Europe. Inspired by great masters such as Banksy, Shepard Fairey Obey, Basquiat, Keith Haring, KAWS, Yayoi Kusama, Takashi Murakami, Damien Hirst, Georgia O’Keeffe, Brook Andrew, Jeff Koons, Nicolas Party, Orlinski, Mr Brainwash, Space Invader, Warhol, Dillon Boy, Tracey Emin art, Joan Miró, Dalí, Picasso and Ai Weiwei, Joseph Klibansky, Kees Verkoade, Herman Brood, Bram Bogart, Ton Schulten, Marlene Dumas, Jan Schoonhoven, Roger Raveel, Nic Jonk, Chris Berens, Lucebert, Lita Cabellut, Bram Bogart, Marianne Houtkamp, Piero Gilardi, Vinicio Berti, Roberto Miniati, Nunziante, Rabarama, Panamarenko, Guy Vandenbranden, Jan Fabre, Corneille, Jan Desmarets, César, Arman, Robert Combas, Michel Macréau and Pierre Soulages.
Sometimes he has used in his artistic expressions brands such as Gucci, Prada, Nike, Adidas, Reebok, Streetart, Art, Ysl, Puma, Rolex, Swatch, Omega, Seiko, Breitling, Montblanc, Louis Vuitton, Hermes, Chanel, Christian Dior, Celine, Fendi, Air Jordan, Balenciaga, Valentino, Lego, Versace, Supreme, Mercedes, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati, Rolls-Royce.
His art is widely appreciated and cannot be missing among collectors of paintings and sculptures of street art, pop art, and contemporary art, as well as among fans of collections of Disney comics, Donald Duck, Mickey Mouse, Minnie, Uncle Scrooge, Tintin, comics, Cartier, Pokémon, models, Zippo, Kartell, Eames, Vitra, Artemide, Artifort, Star Wars, Nintendo, gold and diamonds.
"Classifying my art is never easy; I try to convey what my eyes see, my way of looking at what surrounds me, and I reinterpret it with a design that marries well with 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.
