About this artwork

The Bay Area in California awoke Wednesday 9 September to a scene straight out of Mars.

Orange and even red skies blanketed San Francisco, Oakland and Berkeley, and ash rained down, with wildfires raging far in the distance.
"When the smoke and ash get even thicker close to the wildfires, it can cut the sunlight out completely, making it look like the dead of night," CNN meteorologist Judson Jones said.
Residents turned on lights, looking into a… rust-colored sky that made it look like nighttime. Winds are carrying the wildfire smoke from afar. Both the Creek Fire and the North Complex Fire are burning more than 200 miles away, yet their presence could be felt in the Bay Area. Other places, such as Salem, Oregon, are experiencing similar apocalyptic glows. [CNN]

« The paintings seem to aim for realism, but upon closer look we notice every deviation marked by the sharp contrast from one element to another. »

Marco Barberio is an established Italian painter who has exhibited his work internationally, including in Spain, Australia and the UK. Having cultivated a firm passion for art and creativity from a young age, he has worked as an art director as well as in web development and entrepreneurship alongside his artistic practice. Barberio's paintings primarily balance the dualism of realist forms and conceptual symbols, a style he describes as 'sampled realism.' His works ultimately offer each viewer the opportunity to contemplate the metaphors present in modern digital life, layering colors and curves to raise questions about loss, knowledge and reality.
