About this artwork
It's a moment of tension, of utmost trust between patient and dentist. The realism of the scene makes it palpable and engaging, capable of telling a story we've all experienced, one way or another.
The beautiful patient is tense as the dentist explores her mouth. Her gaze widens to include details out of context (the forceps and the electric drill), suggesting a perhaps excessive trust in the dentist.
The details set the scene and underline its… humorous charge.
This work is part of a series of subjects depicting five professions: pediatricians, doctors, dentists, and male and female lawyers. Additional subjects or replicas can be ordered.
These are scenes with the protagonists in action. Interplay of glances and careful detail reveal humorous situations. After all, art can also make you smile, sometimes neglecting to take on all the world's ills.
I was born in Italy in 1954. In Naples in the 1970s, amid university and social unrest, I worked as a cartoonist for trade union publications, but it was in Potenza in the 1980s that I began my journey into color, always with a figurative-realistic spirit. Since 1996, I've been in Naples and joined Esasperatismo, an artistic movement with which I participated in international events. In 2011, I moved permanently to Basilicata and rediscovered sculpture through my ceramicist friends. It's an old love, always postponed, but one I can now focus on. Now, in my final years, when urgency and ambition give way to idealistic values, I dedicate myself to my work calmly, taking care of the preparatory stages and taking all the time necessary to solidify ideas and concepts. And some may already recognize my signature in this. I live in Basilicata and work only on projects and commissions that deserve my attention and commitment. When I can, I honor artistic events everywhere.
