AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Santicri has participated in numerous art exhibitions of international importance. Among the most significant, in 2022 he exhibited his works at the prestigious Palazzo Grillo in Genoa, and in 2023 he was present at the International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) in New York, thus expanding his visibility in both national and international contexts.
Santicri has been 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 the growing appreciation for his work. These accolades highlight the extraordinary talent and increasing visibility of Santicri in the contemporary art scene.

At the top of the canvas, the surface appears burned, deformed and marked by a transformation that seems to elude any control. The fire bursts into the work and becomes the protagonist of an unexpected event, while the depicted face reacts to what is happening, watching it with wonder and fear.

The character is no longer a static presence within the composition, but seems to enter into a direct relationship with the transformation of the canvas. Its gaze becomes an integral part of the work, creating a kind of dialogue between what is depicted and what is actually happening to the surface.

The work thus reflects on the fragility of matter and our need to maintain control. The fire represents the unforeseen, the event capable of breaking the balance and altering what seemed stable and definitive.

The canvas thus becomes a moment of suspended tension between fear and transformation: the character witnesses the destruction of their own reality, while the work itself seems to react and change before their eyes.

What initially appears to be destruction thus becomes a creative process. The material alters, the image changes, and the meaning of the work evolves, transforming the character’s fear into an integral part of their new identity.

SHIPPING INSURED!.
The package is carefully packed,
The edition number assigned will be randomly selected from those available.

The artist established himself in 2024 as one of the most sought-after names on Catawiki, immediately ranking after icons like 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 recognized talent 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 pursued a path that, between studies in Geometer and Architecture, led him to collaborate with a resin sculpture craftsman. 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 and sculpture, pop art, contemporary art.
"It is never easy to classify one's art; I try to convey what my eyes see, my way of seeing what surrounds me, and I reinterpret it with a design that fits well with 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.
