Abandoned room with the Mole Antonelliana

An original piece from the series "Abandoned rooms", oil on canvas. 40 x 70 cm, 2018. Original ols. This series of paintings was inspired by the metaphysical landscapes of De Chirico. I have always been fascinated by their clear vision of the architecture, with the precise design of the shadows, almost anticipating the modern use of three-dimensional modeling software. In the way I feel, however, more introverted and almost unsociable, the outer space is transformed into a closed one, private and protected, from which the human presence is totally gone away. In those rooms then, it may happen that some strange objects and some unexpected decorations appear, suggesting that the person who lives there has overcome the lack of relationship to the outside world with the richness and complexity of his inner world. -- Some details on the painting: this piece is made with oil colors on canvas (fine-grained, thickness of the canvas: 2 cm; the edges of the canvas are painted in continuity with the surface and the canvas can be hanged without frame). The finishing of the painting is made with protective gloss varnish (transparent mastic paint). The painting was made in Turin - Italy, in 2018. Certificate of Authenticity is included, with signature of the artist on photograph. The painting is signed on the front bottom right corner.
