When an object no longer serves the purpose for which it was created, it is thrown away... usually. I like to think that an object can have another chance, perhaps by changing its purpose, adding and giving it a new life! This canvas was cut on one side, I was going to throw it away years ago, in fact at that time I didn't even use canvases but preferred to use wooden frames, The search for the best materials for my works to present to my collectors or at exhibitions is a key aspect for me, I am very strict about this! But I didn't throw it away, I put it there... and accomplice to my clutter it stayed in that corner of my studio hidden among the other canvases. Then last month I saw it and I liked its size and the idea of giving it a new life, of not wasting it. So I tried to repair it and I wanted to create scars, I wanted it to show the wound.... This is because the theme I deal with is precisely this, to seize the moment, to enjoy all the things that life offers us, even wounds, because they remind us of the pain we have experienced. For this work, I chose a teapot finely embellished with gold embroidery as the subject to create a contrast with the roughly stitched canvas, to remind us that life can be precious even after pain. This painting is the 15th in this series and is painted using the oil on canvas technique, its dimensions are 40x80 cm. I finished painting the work in April of the year 2021. The work is designed without a frame, it will be accompanied by a certificate of authenticity for shipment outside the European Union it is necessary to wait for the authorisation of the Ministry of Culture and this may cause a delay of a few days

I was born in Parma, Italy's little Paris, and ever since I was a child I loved spending my afternoons among tempera and brushes, experimenting with my creativity on stones and walls. The inspiration and desire to paint was great, so for six months I attended a drawing course with Maestro Gianni Melegari. His teachings helped me perfect myself and find my way, which I built on rigour and constant commitment. In 1999 came my first major solo exhibition entitled I mnemagoghi, or 'memory arousers'. Memories with immense evocative power were the real protagonists of this artistic series of mine. I subsequently collaborated with several art galleries until, in 2004, the San Lorenzo Art House chose me to do a cultural exchange with a group of US artists. In the summer of that same year, I left for Miami where I had the honour of being present at the Art Center and participating in the group exhibition inspired by the city. My artistic research never stopped and, in September 2009, at the Eleonora D'Andrea Contemporanea Gallery, I presented the series ...A nudo in which I stripped my art and investigated the concept of inner beauty. That event was a success and, a month later, my installation arrived at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Lucca. Over the years my way of making art has changed a lot, but what has always remained constant is the modus operandi. I use an ancient technique, that of oil painting, and I treat my works in every part, starting with the construction of the support. I highlight the parts of the painting that serve me to express the message I want and leave others incomplete to give free interpretation to those who observe them. My free and constantly evolving art gives birth to works pervaded by an original and intense poetics that, between silence and energy, I dedicate to the power of life. I never strive for perfection: it is the depiction of tensions and details rich in material touches that gives strength and meaning to my compositions. I like to work with themes, even very different ones, in which I put my whole self in order to stimulate my imagination and that of the observer without reserve. Through painting I feel I can completely express myself, my inner world, my fears, my dreams.
