Fred Tomaselli — Study for Tower of Peace Towers
Fred Tomaselli

Study for Tower of Peace Towers

A dazzling and intricately layered composition, Fred Tomaselli constructs a luminous tower-like structure from densely arranged photographic cutouts, pharmaceutical pills, and botanical imagery, all sealed beneath a glossy resin surface. The work pulses with kaleidoscopic energy, blending organic and synthetic elements into a hypnotic pattern that evokes both utopian architecture and psychedelic vision. Tomaselli's signature fusion of found imagery and hand-applied paint creates a surface that is simultaneously flat and endlessly deep, inviting prolonged contemplation of its obsessive detail.

Medium
photo collage, acrylic, gouache, resin on wood
