About: “Pezzo di Terra” – “Piece of Ground” depicts a magnified illustration of the ground found in the countryside where I walk past near my home. You can notice all its details only by looking at it from really close, it’s like it’s own little world, meant to be explored by small creatures only, and almost unnoticeable by us. I wanted to recreate it with a pencil drawing which as a media helped me a lot in observing all its little details with precision. The meditative process itself is an essential part of the work which could potentially endlessly go on filling up entire rooms, which means this is only a small sample of what the actual work could become.
