AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Title: DNA I – The Threshold of Silence
Artist: Nush Menna
Original oil on canvas work belonging to the DNA series, a painting project started in 2026 and born within the artistic research of Nush Menna.
For many years the artist has developed a painting path that traverses several languages and themes of contemporary figuration. The DNA series represents one of the most recent evolutions of this research and deepens the human face as a place of identity, memory, emotion and presence.
In this work the gaze becomes the focal point of the composition: it does not tell a specific person, but suggests a universal dimension in which every observer can recognize something of themselves. Realism dialogues with a photographic sensitivity made of light, glazes and matter, giving life to an intense and timeless image.
The work is executed entirely in oil on canvas, through a layered technique that enhances depth, chromatic balance and the quality of the painting surface.
Technique: Oil on canvas.
Dimensions: 30 × 42 cm.
Year: 2026.
Final varnish: Professional protective final varnish.
Signature: Signed by the artist.
Certificate of authenticity: Included.
The work will be shipped directly from the artist’s studio, carefully protected. To ensure maximum safety during transport, the canvas will be shipped rolled in a professional rigid tube, an ideal solution for international shipping.
For packaging, where possible, recycled materials and recycled paper will be used, with particular attention to environmental sustainability.
Unique work. There are no copies or reproductions. Each painting is made entirely by hand by Nush Menna and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
Seller's Story
My painting is born from the desire to explore the human being in contemporary time, between identity, symbols, and inner transformations. I do not simply paint what I see, but what I perceive behind the image: emotions, fragility, tensions, and contradictions that belong to our era.
My work develops through a layered and slow oil technique, where every detail has a meaning and every element contributes to the narrative of the piece. The figures I paint do not represent merely individuals, but universal conditions: vulnerability, strength, loneliness, and the longing for connection.
For me painting is an act of research and authenticity, a way to restore depth in a world dominated by speed and superficial image. Through color, light, and composition I seek to create works capable of maintaining a living relationship with those who observe them over time.
My works are present in international private collections and are mainly created in oil on canvas, with a constant production and an artistic research in continual evolution.
"ZEITGEISTTEPERAMENTLOS [SPIRITO - DEL - TEMPO - SENZA - SPIRITO]
Riflesso di un attento "studium" travestito da distratto "punctum" - raccolta di ritratti senza identità - costellazione claustrofobica di tribù urbane - moltitudini solitarie - selfie ugualmente di sé massificati per te distratto - istantanee di un passato presente - colori forti per spiriti fragili - profonda superficialità - spirito - del - tempo - senza - spirito."
