About The Artwork
I usually ask my friends/models to do something specific when they pose for me, at least I explain what’s the idea of the painting I want to create. But sometimes, the moments they are simply waiting, those moments “in between” are the most genuine and spontaneous of the session, like in this case. With this painting I have also wanted to give for the first time a particular importance to the space around, the background which I always consider as important as the foreground/character. Full and void. The space in between. And I wanted to underline the physicality of the space around the figure with the aluminium structure that is always hidden behind the steel, but still there and fundamental as it’s the “strong” part which supports the painting. So I thought: why not showing it? I think it’s a very plastic work and I am happy about it. Not only what we see and consciously decide is worth, but all the * in between too. The painting is made with oil colours on steel plates which I weld myself, I use then the process of oxidation which creates the rust which I then partly remove before starting painting with oil. The rust is a changing element, so it could be that it will develop with the time, having a painting that it’s never the same.

Germany
Sabatino Cersosimo was born in Turin in 1974. He studied advertising design and then received a Degree in Painting and Decoration at the Academy of Fine Arts of Turin in 1999. Since 2011 he lives and works in Berlin. Following a line that has its roots in a certain expressionist painting (especially the Viennese Secession) but evolves through the modern mediterranean and english realism, he uses basically two surfaces: metal and wood. Since he mainly paints with oil and oxidation on steel plates, the concepts of time, will and chance have been crucial to the development of his research. Art is historically considered eternal, but Cersosimo's paintings underscore art’s metamorphic nature. Here, we witness artwork as it is developing, shifting, and in some cases, mutating into other forms, much like the elements of nature on the planet. Cersosimo's paintings mirror constellations of humanity in tiny particles. In doing so, they feature many of the commonalities shared among human beings across culture, language, gender, and race.
