Certificate of authenticity - hand-signed
limited edition x/8
This work plays with the perception between two-dimensional and three-dimensional, transforming a static image into a vivid experience. The colored liquid that drips from the canvas blends perfectly with the real valve, creating the illusion that the color really flows out of the canvas.
The physical insertion of the valve and the suspended drop breaks the fourth wall of art, leading the viewer to question what is real and what is not. The effect is ironic and provocative: is it possible to control the creative flow? Can inspiration be turned on and off like a tap?
The work blends pop aesthetics, ready-made and conceptual spirit, with a direct yet layered visual language. An intelligent mix of color, matter and concept that catches the eye and invites reflection.
The shipment is insured. The package is carefully packed,
The drop is shipped separately from the faucet, to be screwed onto the faucet (by hand). This is done to ensure a safer shipment.
The work is a digital painting on 350 g canvas, the faucet is iron, the drop is resin with an iron core.
The frame is not included.
The shipment is insured. The package is carefully packed,
The edition number shipped is randomly selected from 8 copies.
The artist established himself in 2024 as one of the most sought-after names on Catawiki, positioning himself immediately after icons such as Kaws and Banksy. His art stands out in an exclusive context that includes other categories of excellence, such as Rolex, Lego, Louis Vuitton, Porsche, Eames, Macallan, Tintin, Cartier and Pokémon. A talent recognized not only for creative value but also as one of the most promising investments of the year.
Born in 1992 in Macerata, Marche, the Italian artist followed a path that, between studies in Geometer and Architecture, led him to collaborate with a resin sculpture artisan. 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.
His art is widely appreciated and cannot be missing among collectors of paintings and sculptures of street art, pop art, contemporary art.
"It is never easy to classify one’s art; I try to convey what my eyes see, my way of looking at what surrounds me, and I rework it with a design that fits well with modern times: impactful and memorable."
