Santicri Mixed media Dimensions: 90x50x15 cm Certificate of authenticity - hand-signed Limited edition x/8 This work stages a pointed reflection on the value and power of money. The repetition of one-dollar bills, deformed into a fluid movement converging to a point, evokes the idea of flow, as if it were a moving energy. The choice to integrate a real faucet, from which money appears to gush, amplifies the conceptual dimension: money as a liquid, manipulable resource, and at the same time illusory. In this way, the artist not only represents money but stages it as spectacle and paradox: an inexhaustible source of desire, but also a symbol of a power that slips away from and eludes hands. The work is a digital painting on 350 g canvas; the faucet is iron, the drop is resin with an iron core. Shipped insured. The package is carefully packed The drop is shipped separately from the faucet, to be screwed onto the faucet (by hand), thus ensuring safer shipping. The edition number shipped will be randomly chosen from the available ones. The artist established himself in 2024 as one of the most sought-after names on Catawiki, immediately following icons such as Kaws and Banksy. His art stands out in an exclusive context that includes other categories of excellence, such as Rolex, Lego, Louis Vuitton, Porsche, Eames, Macallan, Tintin, Cartier and Pokémon. A talent recognized not only for its creative value but also as one of the most promising investments of the year. Born in 1992 in Macerata, Marche, the Italian artist pursued a path that, between studies in Geomancy and Architecture, led him to collaborate with a resin sculpture craftsman. There arose the increasingly strong need to find himself and unleash his creativity. His works are sold worldwide, collaborating with galleries in Italy and Europe. His art is widely appreciated and is a must-have among collectors of street art paintings and sculptures, pop art, contemporary art. "It's never easy to classify one's own art; I try to convey what my eyes see, my way of perceiving what surrounds me, and I rework it with a design that fits well with modern times: impactful and memorable."
