Description from the seller
Santicri has participated in numerous internationally prominent art exhibitions. Among the most significant, in 2022 he showcased his works at the prestigious Palazzo Grillo in Genoa, and in 2023 he attended the International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) in New York, thus expanding 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.

Technique: Resin and marble powder
Dimensions: H13 x L15 x D13 cm
Condition: new
Certificate of authenticity - hand-signed
Edition: limited edition 100ex
A simple, recognizable figure is transformed into something different. The teddy bear, a symbol of affection and protection, retains its shape but loses its function: it is no longer something to touch or to experience with lightness.
The surface completely changes the perception of the work. What looks familiar from a distance becomes more distant up close, almost inaccessible. Thus a direct contrast is created between what we know and what we see.
The work plays precisely on this tension: on one hand it draws you in, on the other it keeps you at a distance. In this way, a childhood image is reread in a contemporary key, becoming something more complex and less reassuring.

The serial number may not match the one in the photo.
Born in 1992 in Macerata, Marche, the Italian artist followed a path that, between studies as a Surveyor and Architecture, led him to collaborate with a resin sculpture craftsman. There arose an ever stronger need to find himself and unleash his creativity.
His works are sold worldwide, collaborating with galleries in Italy and Europe. Inspired by great masters such as Banksy, Shepard Fairey Obey, Basquiat, Keith Haring, KAWS, Yayoi Kusama, Takashi Murakami, Damien Hirst, Georgia O’Keeffe, Brook Andrew, Jeff Koons, Nicolas Party, Orlinski, Mr Brainwash, Space Invader, Warhol, Dillon Boy, Tracey Emin Art, Joan Miró, Dalí, Picasso and Ai Weiwei, Joseph Klibansky, Kees Verkade, Herman Brood, Bram Bogart, Ton Schulten, Marlene Dumas, Jan Schoonhoven, Roger Raveel, Nic Jonk, Chris Berens, Lucebert, Lita Cabellut, Bram Bogart, Marianne Houtkamp, Piero Gilardi, Vinicio Berti, Roberto Miniati, Nunziante, Rabarama, Panamarenko, Guy Vandenbranden, Jan Fabre, Corneille, Jan Desmarets, César, Arman, Robert Combas, Michel Macréau and Pierre Soulages.
Occasionally he has incorporated in his artistic expressions brands such as Gucci, Prada, Nike, Adidas, Reebok, Streetart, Art, Ysl, Puma, Rolex, Swatch, Omega, Seiko, Breitling, Montblanc, Louis Vuitton, Hermes, Chanel, Christian Dior, Celine, Fendi, Air Jordan, Balenciaga, Valentino, Lego, Versace, Supreme, Mercedes, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati, Rolls-Royce.
His art is widely appreciated and is a must among collectors of street art and pop art paintings and sculptures, as well as enthusiasts of comic book collections such as Disney characters, Donald Duck, Mickey Mouse, Minnie, Uncle Scrooge, Tintin, comics, Cartier, Pokémon, models, Zippo, Kartell, Eames, Vitra, Artemide, Artifort, Star Wars, Nintendo, gold and diamonds.
"It is never easy to classify one’s own art; I try to convey what my eyes see, my way of perceiving what surrounds me, and I reinterpret it with a design that fits well with modern times: impactful and memorable."
