ARTISTS
Lorenzo and Simona Perrone are known for their ability to blend unusual materials with strong emotional and conceptual depth. Their work stands out for its exploration of an expressive language that highlights the contrast between physicality and immateriality. By using books, plaster, acrylic paint, and string, they transform everyday objects into works with profound meaning. Their pieces tell stories of memory, absence, and spirituality.
Per non dimenticare
“Per non dimenticare” is a work that explores the power of memory as a tool for awareness and growth. The open book, with barbed wire crossing through it, becomes a symbol of an interrupted narrative and a painful past that should not be forgotten. The barbed wire suggests the difficulty of keeping memory alive, but also the necessity of doing so in order to avoid repeating historical mistakes. The materials used, such as plaster and acrylic paint, give the work a visual tension. It invites reflection on the value of memory and its role as a guide for the future.
Why Choose “Per non dimenticare”
The title of the work is an invitation not to let the events that have marked our history fall into oblivion. The open book, a symbol of knowledge and truth, is crossed by the barbed wire, an element that emphasizes the difficulty of keeping memory alive and the weight of the scars of the past. The work stimulates reflection on the need to remember, in order to build a more conscious and just future, learning from past experiences.
Conclusion
“Per non dimenticare” is much more than a sculpture: it is a powerful symbol of memory, awareness, and hope. A piece that enriches contemporary art collections and spaces dedicated to culture and reflection. Discover this intense and symbolic creation at the PUNTO SULL’ARTE Gallery in Varese, as part of the exhibition “Di Bianco e Di Essenza”.
