Alessandro Pumo

Alessandro Pumo, born in Catania, combines literature and visual arts, working mainly with oil on canvas and pastel on paper. His style, more figurative than figurative, searches for reality without impressing a predefined meaning. Pumo explores dynamic tensions between action and waiting, historical noise and the silence of memory, thus creating a delicate balance between reality and escape. His works evoke liminal emotions, capturing the fragile brevity of truth before it dissolves, and induce a respectful silence in front of that which insists on wanting to be seen.
