Fiori di Glicine

<div>His pictorial research arrives at the projection of the mechanisms of decomposition and dissolution of the real image into pixels typical of digital virtual, in the desire to reconcile the long and thoughtful times of painting with the frenetic ones of contemporary reality. A research that develops in the studio and in urban art. It is indeed very influenced by urban art, graffiti, and always by painting evolving in space. In his investigation, the pixels are the topics of a new telematic and inconsistent subject, they are a way to see things and to get closer to the story.</div>

<div>"If I look back I look for all the purity that is no longer there. If I look in the mirror I still try to see myself grown up.
<br>Abyss is a work inspired by a thought by Nietzsche that I found in an album that marked my adolescence; The sound of perseverance by Death. The aphorism went like this: "If you look long into the abyss, the abyss also looks into you".
<br>A kid who could be each of us, a metaphorical Narcissus, who does not seek his reflection in a mirror of water but the conscience in the eyes of people who look up, looking for answers, causing interactions." shares the artist</div>

Abyss

<div>The murals bring together history and contemporaneity and this new mural combines the pink color of the Giro d'Italia with the work of Cielo d’Alcamo, Rosa Fresca Aulentissima; in fact, a female figure with a rose is represented; we chose via Sen. Parrino, because it overlooks the final stretch of the stage of the Giro d'Italia, while passing through our city. Thanks to the inhabitants of the neighborhood and to the condominiums of the buildings where the mural is being created, who appreciated the artistic initiative to enhance the area. Art has the extraordinary power to unite! "</div>

Here is my Jeanne, or rather her neck, caressed by abstract discontinuous flows that are perhaps the sighs of her beloved Amedeo ".&nbsp;<br>Sponsor: Bonsignori vernici, Mollo noleggio, Asa trade<br><br>Salvo Ligama is a Sicilian master, his genius lies in creating murals with an extreme contemporary look, bright colors in large backgrounds, but which also always have a retro taste, an ancient soul. Large Greek-like statues next to blinding rainbows, broken busts in incomparable metaphysical atmospheres. In this search for opposites, that is, being both in the future to be fulfilled and in a millennial past, Ligama finds a unique, personal, suspended and absolute style.<br><br></div>
