PRESS INFORMATION

Petroglyph as the neorealism in everyday life.
Petroglyph
as stories handed down over generations.
Petroglyph
as a medium of hidden messages.

The Petroglyph collection recodes and reprocesses scrap material sourced from the
Studio Nucleo Laboratory in an assemblage constantly changing and evolving form.
The layers of the material evoke the wooden tablets used to make scribbles in the preliminary phase
of cave painting, becoming a media to support an even more relevant piece of art.

The timber boards are used as a screen-printed matrix. With a painting gesture, unique and unrepeatable,
the message is transferred on the wooden surface.
After being assembled, the piece will carry an invisible message, a secret kept only on a canvas,
where aphorisms inspired by Fedor Dostoevskij will celebrate beauty as the only form of salvation.

Salvation in a double sense, the message hidden inside the soul, and in the reused material,
the body, visible to all. A tradition of reusing that has been lost during the last
quarter century and is now re-introduced.
Beauty will save the world, but we should also preserve beauty.
