Sacral-Technics is
a collection that explores and converges into a single vision the
sacredness of Christian iconography and tribal elements to an
Industrial/Technological scenario. This double inspiration runs
through diametrically different visions: the baroque opulence of
churches and Christian nativity is combined with details of voodoo
matrix and put in contrast with the monolithic architecture of Berlin
and the monumentality of modular buildings according to the stylistic
signature of architects such as Louis Kahn , Daniel Libeskind and
Tadao Ando.
"Nicola Samorì makes seductive, profound paintings by layering and fusing
images on canvas, woodor copper and then obliterating them by
scratching, erasing, fingering and painting over the surfacesmultiple
times. The resulting layersof paint create a new skin that bears the bruises and permanent marks of all prior creative efforts.
Selecting portraits and still lifes from classical
paintings but also sourcing random faces and imagesfrom the Web, Samorì
is engaged in a project about time and corrosion. Mythological and
religiousfigures dominate Samorì canvasses."
