About this artwork
There are many insects some of these have such surreal shapes that they defy the same
human imagination. For me one of them is the stick insect. He rests, unperturbed, strong in his own
surprising mimicry on the edge of a vase. It has such a singular and strange shape: it is long and
dry it almost seems that it can break at any moment. And like those breadsticks you do
found at restaurant tables before lunch. It could become some little bird's… lunch,
or the game of some impertinent cat, but no, he sits quietly on his vase; stop,
motionless is there ... colorful and carefree green

« He who works with his hands is a worker, he who works with his hands and his head is a craftsman. He who works with his hands, his head, and his heart is an artist. »
Sofia Battisti is an artist based in Italy whose paintings have been featured in several solo and group exhibitions nationally. Her art explores themes relating to the love of nature and animals.
