AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Opera unica by Santicri, among the Best-Selling Artists of 2024 and one of the three most sought-after names on Catawiki. “Falling and Rebirth” represents one of the most intense expressions of his exploration of dualism between chaos and transformation, combining visual power with technical refinement.

Description:
This work transforms the painting gesture into an essential, direct, almost primitive sign. The single, continuous stroke develops across the surface as an immediate trace, without corrections, making visible the act at the very moment it happens.

The line, irregular and tactile, is crossed by drips that introduce a tension between control and abandon. What might seem simple becomes, instead, an authentic recording of the gesture: a fragile balance between intention and chance.

The real insertion of the brush interrupts the two-dimensionality of the canvas, transforming the work into a physical presence. The gesture is no longer just represented, but remains suspended in space, as if it had never truly finished.

Technical details:

Technique: Acrylic on canvas
Measurements: 70 × 100 × 2 cm (2 canvases 50x70cm)
Edition: Unique work
Signature: Hand-signed on the front
Certificate of Authenticity included
Shipping: Professional packaging, insured shipping with tracking. Canvas mounted on a wooden frame (frame not included).

Artist profile:
Santicri (Macerata, 1992) is an Italian artist recognized internationally. He exhibited in 2022 at Palazzo Grillo in Genoa and in 2023 at the International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) in New York.
In 2024 he was included among Artmayeur’s Best-Selling Artists and among the three most sought-after artists on Catawiki, alongside iconic names like Kaws and Banksy. His works are now in private collections and galleries across Europe.

His research blends contemporary art, design, and material experimentation, giving rise to impactful works with strong collecting potential.

“I strive to convey what my eyes see, reinterpreting it in a modern key: direct, powerful, memorable.” — Santicri

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.
