Giuseppe Santomaso — Sans Titre (Ruote e falci)
Giuseppe Santomaso

Sans Titre (Ruote e falci)

Giuseppe Santomaso's "Sans Titre (Ruote e falci)" combines charcoal and gouache on paper to create an abstract composition that references agricultural imagery through its Italian subtitle meaning "Wheels and Sickles." The work exemplifies the artist's approach to abstraction wherein recognizable forms such as circular and curved elements evoke rural tools and machinery while remaining fundamentally non representational. Through the interplay of dark charcoal marks and luminous gouache passages, Santomaso constructs a dynamic visual rhythm that bridges the gap between geometric abstraction and poetic suggestion of the natural world.
