Salvatore Alibrio, Fuori dal coro, a unique mixed-media relief of 30 × 30 cm (depth 3 cm) created in 2026 in Italy, signed by hand and in excellent condition, assembled from hand-painted tesserae on a wooden support with an authenticity certificate included.
Description from the seller
Bas-relief composed of small, precious faces. It is a unique work of its kind because each tile has been painted and inserted by hand on a wooden support. The materials used are plaster/diplast (resin) and acrylic paints, all of excellent quality, ideal for furnishing contemporary spaces.
The artwork consists of a grid arrangement of small colored tiles, each characterized by a thin, abstract facial impression. The repetition of the motif within the grid suggests themes of identity, diversity, and unity. The textured surface adds depth and invites tactile exploration, while the overall structure evokes a sense of order and rhythm. This artwork could explore the intersection between individuality and collectivity through the lens of abstract portraiture. The use of color is particularly striking, emphasizing both contrast and cohesion. The piece could be seen as a commentary on how faces, while unique, are part of a broader mosaic of human experience. It invites viewers to reflect on the diversity of expression and emotion within an apparently uniform scheme.
Salvatore Alibrio, born 1991, is an artist who has developed significant sculptural research, participating in exhibitions and symposia, including those promoted by the Academy of Fine Arts of Catania. His practice explores artistic language through an iconographic vocabulary that blends tradition and experimentation. He uses materials such as stone, marble, clay, and resin, revealing a deep connection with his cultural roots. His work addresses contemporary social issues, often reflecting on current tragedies. Alibrio reinterprets the recognizable through a logic of fragmentation, stimulating critical reflections. His mastery of materials and rigorous approach contribute to developing an autonomous artistic language capable of expressing tension and strength.
The work will be accompanied by a certificate of authenticity and will be shipped inside a rigid outer packaging.
