Creator: Orazio De Gennaro
Offered by: Arco Gallery

Description
This captivating abstract painting blends color and texture, making it a perfect fit for art enthusiasts and interior designers looking to add depth and dimension to a space. The piece exudes a meditative quality, with soft strokes of lavender, pink, and yellow blending seamlessly into earthy tones, evoking a sense of nature and organic beauty. Drawing inspiration from his Italian heritage, the artist integrates handmade pigments, lime paint, and natural materials into the layered composition, creating a rich, tactile surface. This work will complement interiors seeking a subtle yet impactful artistic statement, bringing a refined, earthy elegance to any room.

Perfect for contemporary or modern interiors, the painting's textured finish adds a dynamic element, ideal for living rooms, lobbies, or offices where art serves as a focal point. Its subdued palette and intricate detail align with current design trends, where neutral tones and natural elements are celebrated. The timeless appeal of this work lies in its ability to balance abstraction with materiality, making it suitable for both minimalist and eclectic spaces.

Italian born - from the southern region of Campania, home to the ancient Roman sites of Pompei and Ercolano - the artist says about his work: " My work references the land of my ancestors. Over the years, the elements of that land - the light, texture, shadows, color, and the actual materials themselves - earth pigments, lime, marble dust - have formed the essence of an “inner landscape” and have become a reference point for my work. I was trained as a sculptor and the “feel” of the material is central to my work. The use of and commitment to unconventional handmade tactile materials is essential for me. I use an earth palette which includes handmade lime paint, pigments, graphite, handmade oil pastel, sand, dirt, and straw. The creation of these materials in the studio is an essential component of my process. I build up the surface, adding layers, sometimes scrape away, and often take a torch for what remains. This physical engagement establishes an intimate relationship with these active substances, leading to a sense of immediacy, depth, and freshness. "
