Piece description from the artist
This painting belongs to the 'Wondering Heights' collection, a series of cityscapes/mindscapes and lyrical skies representing collective dreams and desires drifting and sparkling above a brutalist concrete jungle. A tribute to the colourful power of imagination as a relief from everyday life and urban greyness but also to the challenges and inputs to inner growth and self-discovery that life in the big city can exposes individuals to.
Original is made of recycled materials: reused wooden panels, discarded wall paint leftovers, paper cut-outs of digital images treated with acrylic resins and seamlessly incorporated into the composition.
The juxtaposition of the three different techniques (digital, oil and acrylic) gives the whole image a distinctive depth and intensity.
Originally from southern Italy, Stefano has lived in London for over two decades. Identity, introspection, mindfulness and freedom are recurrent themes in his work as well as a sense of nostalgia for the Mediterranean Sea and its dazzling light.
"My work revolves around personal meditations on existential
quests like impermanence, attachment and transcending the
ego. A journey beyond the thinking mind that connects to
nature and brings psychological freedom and inner peace."
