About this artwork
The print is a macro detail of a painting inspired by a 9 y.o. kid that is dedicating all his free time to ride professional go-carts, showing a maturity and a discipline that I really admire. The result is a fusion of symbolic, mural, tribal and pop art. Juxtaposing a reference of discipline, which is fortunately and constantly contradicted by a happy shambolic dynamism. To the point where a police car becomes prey to the tribal figures in a carousel…
of makeshift go-carts. It is a feast for the unruly and a sure hit for the brave and the more open to racing. The media of the original is acrylic on polystyrene. The detail in the print here has to do with masks and with the rite of passage from childhood to adolescence so common in African and Asian tribal cultures.

Pier Forlano is an multimedia artist known for his impactful expression of the concept of fragility, be it psychological, political or territorial. He uses tree bark, paper layering or model figurines and techniques that vary from acrylic to collage, from bas-relief to miniature dioramas. The main tenets of his production are sculpted paintings that add a depth to the vision. Recurrently he deals with themes of separation from other human beings, from nature and the desire to recuperate feeling and tackle unconscious taboos. Tribal art, surrealism, symbolism and graffiti art remain his possible inspirational starting blocks, together with big political topics such as environment and the populist parties. The Palais des Beaux Arts of Charleroi is presently showing two of his works. He believes that the task of an artist is to shine a light on the untold and uncomfortable or to reveal a strong emotion. His concept of fine art reclaims good composition and intensity of the message.
