Alessandro Sicioldr – Il maestro la voce la luce

Mostra personale.

Comunicato stampa

Primo Marella Gallery is pleased to present for the second time the solo show by the Italian artist Alessandro Sicioldr.

Born in Tuscania (Italy) in 1990, Alessandro Bianchi - Sicioldr starts his training in his father’s studio, where he learns methods and materials of painting and drawing. He draws from Surrealism the irrationality and the exploration of the human psyche, while he takes the dreamlike dimension from Symbolism. For what concerns the use of colours, light and minute details, he is clearly inspired by Mannerism and Flemish painters. Sicioldr’s works represent his own interiority and subconscious. His paintings are immersed in an either contemplative or chaotic atmosphere, where out of time mysterious figures solemnly fill in the space, which is an undefined “somewhere else”, full of enigmas. What we cannot properly define and understand in words is skilfully imprinted on the canvas. This becomes the essential mean to tell the viewer about visions that would be indescribable otherwise.

“ Sicioldr's artworks are not limited to producing images as extrapolations of the unconscious, as happens for example in the tradition of surrealism. Each of his works is the enactment of a story, with elusive and mysterious contents; the mechanism that regulates these stories has its own precise internal coherence, which we are not allowed to explore but is guaranteed to us by the clarity of the compositional structure of each painting. The refined pictorial quality, almost neo-fifteenth-century, is a further factor that on the one hand produces a nearly enveloping fascination in the viewer, on the other establishes a distance, an intangibility, a separateness between the world that makes itself visible through the work and whoever faces it.
