Description from the seller
Rubik’s Identity Series
Year 2026
The artist has created a Series of Unique Works. Each sculpture is a one-of-a-kind piece, individually handcrafted, ensuring its irreplicability. The variations in colors and faces among the cubes conceptually distinguish them, framing the work within the contemporary practice of “variations on a theme.”
Salvatore Alibrio’s work transforms the iconic Rubik’s Cube into a powerful metaphor for the psyche. Replacing the colored tiles with resin faces displaying introspective expressions, the artist explores the fragmentation of contemporary identity. The contrast between the vivid colors of pop art and the solemnity of human features creates an emotional crossfire: the human being is presented as a complex puzzle, an enigma waiting to be solved. The dynamic arrangement of the blocks suggests the constant shifting of the self, making this sculpture a fascinating dialogue between play, design, and deep psychological analysis.
Salvatore Alibrio, born 1991, is an artist who has developed a significant sculptural research, taking part in exhibitions and symposiums, including those promoted by the Academy of Fine Arts of Catania. His practice explores artistic language through an iconographic vocabulary that blends tradition and experimentation. He uses materials such as stone, marble, and clay, revealing a deep connection with his cultural roots. His work addresses contemporary social issues, often reflecting on current tragedies. Alibrio reinterprets the recognizable through a logic of fragmentation, stimulating critical reflections. His mastery of materials and rigorous approach contribute to developing an autonomous artistic language capable of expressing tension and strength.

The work will come with a certificate of authenticity and will be shipped in a rigid protective packaging.
