Unique Work
This work fuses painting and object, transforming one of the most recognizable icons of contemporary communication into a physical gesture suspended in time. The brushstroke, embedded in the canvas, becomes an integral part of the work, fixing the creative act at the moment of its execution. The drips crack the perfection of the smiley face, suggesting that behind a universal symbol of happiness can coexist imperfection, fragility, and authenticity.
SHIPPING INSURED!.
The package is carefully packed, The canvas is shipped already mounted on a wooden frame, frame not included.
The artist established themselves in 2024 as one of the most sought-after names on Catawiki, immediately ranking after icons such as 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 pursued a path that, between studies in surveying and architecture, led him to collaborate with a resin sculpture craftsman. There the need to find himself and unleash creativity grew stronger.
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 paintings and sculptures, pop art, contemporary art.
"It is never easy to classify one's art; I try to convey what my eyes see, my way of seeing what surrounds me, and I rework it with a design that fits 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.
