Acrylic painting on canvas, titled "Santa Subito," with malformations and tears intentionally left by the artist. Size: 240 x 180 cm Moreno Ovani lives and works in Pesaro, where he was born in 1969. Always drawn to figurative drawing, he initially limited this natural inclination to countless sketches on paper, pencil, or charcoal, even during his work as an exhibition designer. For several years, he has dedicated himself entirely to large-format painting, replacing the chiaroscuro of pencil with that of oils and acrylics on canvas-backed paper. Through tireless and constant research into pure technical and aesthetic techniques, focused on the combination of color and material, he has achieved a powerful chromatic minimalism in works that often emerge from the darkness in the form of statues or bodies. Specifically, his subjects draw inspiration from classical sculptures, and their realism embodies both mental and physical strength. Renaissance Madonnas personify Ovani's art: a metaphor, a symbol of the mother, creator of life, the great Mediterranean mother. The artist manages to powerfully bring out the feelings that animate his representations. He uses a contemporary language, through a contemporary photographic approach, canvases with tears, wear, fractures, tape insertions, and overlapping papers. He uses oil and acrylic paints and, alternating brushes with sea sponges and rags, achieves a powerful patina reminiscent of vintage photographs. Art thus evolves into spiritual growth, which presents itself in its highest function, as an opportunity for self-care.
