This sculpture represents a bold and provocative interpretation of traditional mythology.
The artist appears 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 elicits emotions and stimulates reflection, pushing observers to consider the deeper meaning of beauty and suffering.
The sculpture is a limited edition of 100 pieces, each with different color splatters from the others.
Born in 1992 in Macerata, Marche, the Italian artist pursued studies in surveying and architecture, which led him to collaborate with a resin sculpture artisan. There arose the increasingly strong need to find himself and unleash his creativity.
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, pop art, and contemporary art paintings.
"It is never easy to classify my own art; I try to convey what my eyes see, my way of perceiving 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.
