This sculpture represents a bold and provocative interpretation of traditional mythology.
The artist seems to challenge the iconic conventions of the unicorn as a symbol of purity and magic, transforming it into an icon of suffering and conflict. The use of rainbow colors to represent the wound creates an extraordinary contrast between beauty and tragedy.
This sculpture can be interpreted in many ways: a reflection on the fragility of beauty, a representation of the struggle for identity, or a critique of violence hidden behind appearances. It is a work of art that surely evokes emotions and stimulates reflection, pushing viewers to consider the deeper meaning of beauty and suffering.
The sculpture is a limited edition of 100 pieces, each with different color drips from the others.
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 stronger and stronger need to find himself and unleash his own creativity was born.
His works are sold all over the world, collaborating with galleries in Italy and Europe.
His art is widely appreciated and cannot be missing among collectors of paintings and sculptures of street art, pop art and contemporary art.
"It is never easy to classify one’s 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 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.
