4 ELEMENTS
4 ELEMENTS – 100 x 90 cm – Brass (Ottone) + Stainless Steel (Inox) flame burner
Abstract work inspired by the 4 Elements. Earth, Water and Air are represented in the metal while the Fire emerges from a burner that makes, with its flame, the work “alive” and always changing. The fire touches the metal without affecting it, offering dancing reflections, colors and warmth. The special burner generates a flame without smells or smoke, making this work suitable for any type of room.

CORTEN IS OBSOLETE
CORTEN IS OBSOLETE – 100 x 50 cm
Obsolete corten base.
Over it, the innovative Brass, Aluminum, Stainless Steel
Cor-Ten is a great construction metal, as it combines atmosferic CORrosion resistance and TENsile strnght. But as design and architectural material it has been over used…and abused.
SAY STOP! TO CORTEN ABUSE! 😛
4th DIMENSION
4th DIMENSION – 100 x 200 cm – Brass
Inserted in the thread on the study of matter and the interaction between light, particles and cosmic events, this abstract work on brass brings on the theme of relativity and the space-time relation.
In ordinary space, a position is specified by three numbers, known as dimensions. A position in spacetime is called an event, and requires four numbers to be specified: the three-dimensional location in space, plus the position in time. Spacetime is thus four dimensional. An event is something that happens instantaneously at a single point in spacetime, represented by a set of four coordinates.
ATLAS EXPERIMENT
ATLAS EXPERIMENT – 68 x 78 cm – #Brass #Ottone Color oxides background and black controlled oxidation.
The work is inspired by a theme very dear to the author: the study of the matter in search of its essence. “Atlas Experiment” is in fact the name of a real project, supported by Rockefellers and located at the CERN in Geneva, which aims to unveil the mysteries of the subatomic world. The Atlas, symbol of the Rockefellers, supports the heart of the LHD (Large Hardon Collider) and the city of New York merges with the underground tunnels of the most powerful particle accelerator in the World.

Modern artists bother to find a way to impress and express making a new creative art, sometimes by shocking art ideas, other times by minimal works; but the fact is that even creative artist offer no real art innovations, just a reinventing and a reproposal of old art techniques. In this "already seen" scenario, metal art regain this traditional art material. Creative art expressed by modern metal art is an endeavour to reinvent the metal as modern art material but, a lot of times, it is used just as a “base”: this leads to diminishing the metal as modern art material instead of elevating it to metal art. Honestly, I wouldn’t call me a modern artist, not even a creative artist, much more a real metal artist: my metal art comes form a new technique of mine which changes the metal in its depths. My metal art is not “using the modern metal to make something artistic”, while I turn metal to become art itself.
