Unique Work

This work fuses painting and object, transforming the painterly gesture into a conceptual installation. The brush physically embedded in the canvas halts time in an eternal “here and now,” suspending the creative act in its own becoming. The broad, fluid brushstroke becomes the protagonist of a frozen action, transformed from a fleeting gesture into a sculptural presence.

The artist plays with the ambiguity between complete and incomplete, evoking the memory of the gesture and questioning the role of the object in the artistic process. The insertion of the brush breaks the two-dimensionality of the canvas, suggesting a reflection on the boundary between art, action, and matter.

The artist established himself in 2024 as one of the most sought-after names on Catawiki, 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 its 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 Geometry 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, and 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 reshape it with a design that blends well with modern times: impactful and memorable."
