Description from the seller
Creation from Chaos – Primordial Symphony (2025)
With Primordial Symphony, Santicri continues and consolidates his exploration of the generative tension between destruction and birth, transforming the painterly gesture into a structured and conscious act.
The black surface, deep and absolute, does not serve as a simple background but as an original space: an active void from which calibrated, stratified, almost orchestrated color explosions emerge. The detonations of color – vibrant, directional, dynamic – seem to capture the exact moment when chaos decides to transform into form.
A central element of the artist’s practice, the egg is integrated here into the painterly field as a symbolic and material core. It does not represent birth: it embodies it. Fragmented, immersed in the gesture, it becomes part of a composition that alternates tension and control, impulse and construction.
The work was initially presented in a private studio viewing, where some observers defined it as a “held Big Bang” — a visual score in which every explosion maintains an internal coherence, almost musical, from which the title Primordial Symphony derives.
In a contemporary context where action painting risks sliding into mere decoration, Santicri restores to the gesture its original dimension: to create means to break, to contaminate, to rebuild.
Primordial Symphony does not depict chaos.
It crystallizes its generative moment.
Santicri has participated in numerous internationally notable art exhibitions. Among the most significant, in 2022 he exhibited his works at the prestigious Palazzo Grillo in Genoa, and in 2023 he was present at the International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) in New York, thus widening his visibility in both national and international contexts.
Santicri was recognized among the Best-Selling Artists of 2024 by Artmayeur, one of the most renowned platforms in the art world. In the same year, he was also listed among the top three most searched names on the Catawiki platform, another sign of growing appreciation for his work. These accolades underscore his extraordinary talent and the increasing visibility of Santicri in the contemporary art scene.
The artist established himself in 2024 as one of the most sought-after names on Catawiki, immediately after icons like Kaws and Banksy. His art stands out in an exclusive context that includes other spheres of excellence such as Rolex, Lego, Louis Vuitton, Porsche, Eames, Macallan, Tintin, Cartier and Pokémon. A talent recognized not only for its creative value but also as one of the most promising investments of the year.
