Frescos

The Frescos’ imagery is inspired by science, everyday life, biographical events and the landscape, rendered in a metaphysical space, where philosophical question, astrophysics, ancient knowledge fuses together in Kaleidoscope of heterogenous images as well as maintaining an open dialogue with the painting history. As figurative as it may results, Saverio’s Ikons tend to deform reality using certain degree of abstraction and to ground abstraction into the real, or supposed so, world.The use of alabaster plaster as a painting surface allows a hyper polished surface and, through moulding and carving the material, allows also to curve and manipulate its flatness. This results in subtle light effects which convey expressive and conceptual meaning to the image.
