Santicri - Snapshot, Love #12

Santicri has participated in numerous internationally prominent art exhibitions. 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 was 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 growing appreciation for his work. These acknowledgments highlight the extraordinary talent and the ever-increasing visibility of Santicri in the contemporary artistic landscape. Santicri Mixed media, acrylic Dimensions: 70x50x20 cm Certificate of authenticity - hand signed Unique Work This piece fuses painting and object, transforming the gesture into a suspended installation in time. The brush, embedded in the canvas, locks the creative act in an eternal “here and now,” making visible the moment of its execution. The shape of the heart, drawn with a broad, instinctive stroke, is threaded with drips that evoke a tension between emotion and loss of control. A universal icon is thus transformed into a physical, direct, and vulnerable gesture. The insertion of the brush breaks the two-dimensionality of the canvas, placing the work between painting and sculpture, and opening a reflection on the relationship between gesture, matter, and emotion. SHIPPING INSURED! The package is carefully packed. The canvas is shipped already mounted on a wooden frame; frame not included. The artist established himself in 2024 as one of the most sought-after names on Catawiki, immediately ranking behind icons such as Kaws and Banksy. His art stands out in an exclusive context that includes other excellence categories such as Rolex, Lego, Louis Vuitton, Porsche, Eames, Macallan, Tintin, Cartier, and Pokémon. A talent recognized 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 followed a path that, between studies in Geometra (surveying) and Architecture, led him to collaborate with an artisan sculptor working in resin. There arose an 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 paintings and sculptures of street art, pop art, and contemporary art. "It's never easy to classify one's art; I try to convey what my eyes see, my way of perceiving what surrounds me, and I rework it with a design that harmonizes well with modern times: impactful and memorable."
