About this artwork
This small 20 x 20 cm work is part of a cycle of acrylic paintings on Japanese paper glued on wood. Fascinated by the texture of the colors and the chromatic variety of the paper, I thought of making a hundred 20 x 20 cm boards by drawing with syringes and painting straight away, without prior preparatory studies to obtain a genuine result. The numerous square plates will form a wall installation that will be exhibited in my future personal or collective…
exhibitions. I imagine a phantasmagoric representation of textures, backgrounds, colors, themes, signs and designs for an ideal meeting of traditions between East and West.

Antonio Presti is an experienced painter and sculptor based in Italy whose works have been exhibited nationally and in the United States. After completing his artistic studies in 1975, he came into contact with the grandeur of nature in the mountains of Turin, which inspired him to create landscapes with a "revisited naturalism". Presti's "fairy tale and allegorical microcosms" are most often conveyed through the symbolic imagery of trees and fish.
