Le rovine di Detroit
The ruins of Detroit
Acrilico, spray su tela. 2017
Scena che rappresenta il decadimento di Detroit. L' abbandono delle infrastrutture e il lento deteriorarsi dell' ambiente urbano, lasciando posto a rovine e ruderi.
La tela viene concepita e realizzata dopo un viaggio in prima persona a Detroit.
Sono rimasto affascinato da questo ambiente di abbandono; e con l' aiuto di una tecnica mista e di colori forti e contrastanti ho cercato di ricreare questo sentimento di decadenza.
Un ambiente underground, sporco , vissuto, ma affascinante.
Un ambientazione spettrale ma che cattura l' attenzione e da delle emozioni forti e molto opposte.
Acrylic, spray on canvas. 2017
Scene that wants to represents the abandonment of Detroit.
The deterioration of a urban environment, that leave behind only ruins and wrecks.
This canvas was designed first, and realized than after a trip in Detroit.
I was nicely shocked by this sad feelings of abandon, and with the help of strong colors and powerfull contrasts I tried to recreate those feelings of decadence.
An underground environment, dirty., experienced but still fascinating.
A ghostly background that catch attention and gives so different and incomparable emotions.
