On the back of the panel there is a hole that can be used to hang it on the wall simply with a nail. The sides of the panel (1.5 cm) are painted black, creating a visual effect that simulates the look of a frame, thus adding depth and an elegant contrast between the work and its surroundings, as if it were enclosed in an autonomous space. Obviously the panel can also be freely framed according to your taste.

The landscape, for Santoleri, is not a simple naturalistic view, but a mental and emotional structure, an “inner geography” that reflects moods, silences and synthetic visions of reality. His painting is characterized by an essential and contemplative approach: forms are reduced to the essential, clear contours, sober color fields, in a constant tension between formal rigor and lyrical depth.

His works evoke suspended, almost dreamlike atmospheres, where light has a symbolic rather than descriptive function, and each element – a hill, a tree, a house – becomes an archetype. His style, balancing visual minimalism and emotional intensity, recalls certain outcomes of abstract landscape painting and the Italian painting of the twentieth century, while maintaining a wholly personal voice.

In 2022 he was selected for the prestigious Premio Marche – Biennale d’Arte Contemporanea, a recognition that confirms the value of his research in the panorama of Italian contemporary art.

His works are present in private collections and exhibition spaces in Italy and abroad, across Europe, the United States and Asia, testifying to the universality of his visual language.
