The surreal dream that plays with words, as the master used to do. Irony and melancholy in the same image: the work that, among all, also makes you smile. An airplane and a grand piano floating on the sea with a life preserver; a visual play on the title.
ANDREA MARELLO
- 01 As a child I drew and dreamed. Today I dream and draw, I paint, I compose.
- 02 Among the contemporary composers I love, Philip Glass holds a special place: in 1994 he was the inspiration for one of my multimedia projects, *“12 self-portraits for 12 string quintets.”*
- 03 I did not choose to become an artist: it is those who see and experience my works who recognize me as one.
« My connection with Monferrato is a living source of inspiration for me. My research is rooted in a centuries-old history that I feel is part of my own path — from the figure of Rambaldo de Vaqueiras to the courtly and poetic dimension that has shaped the European tradition. The same attitude is reflected in my figurative work, where I combine the memory of ancient history with the sensibilities and languages of modernity, blending historical rigor with contemporary expressiveness. »
