Trasparenze Series

2013

7 wall works total in series:
Pencil and ink on Dura-lar e acrylic on steel.
25" x 50" (63,5 x 127 cm)

These 7 works consist in two layers of overlaid drawing in which elements of historical Rome are juxtaposed with elements drawn from personal experience of Rome. Generally the juxtaposition places the city center in relationship to the periphery, with the outskirts being drawn in black and white and the historic center in color. These layered images are each also perforated by a unique steel extrusion keyed to the artist's personal narrative that connects these two versions of Rome set in transparent overlay.
