Works on Paper

“For me, has always been easier to question myself about why instead of how something happens or manifests its true nature, because I believe that mechanisms behind the reason why we live interconnected within nature and temporally linked to our ancestors, are necesserarly inaccessible to our psyche.

A work on paper, a preparatory study is the reason and cause at the same time. The compound of tracts that generates the real existing object that we as artists,  envision within ourselves and our duty is to give new perspective of these objects of our thinking, products of cognitive processes.”

 

In this section, you will find some of the best best works on paper of Alberto Ballocca, from 2017 until nowaday.

“The profound impact of these influences is evident in Ballocca’s work, which often echoes the thematic and stylistic elements of masters while retaining a distinct personal touch. His engagement with diverse artistic influences and mediums is not merely imitative; it is transformative,
allowing him to assimilate various styles and techniques into his unique artistic language. Ballocca’s ability to draw inspiration from a wide array of sources – from the poetry of ancient cultures to the bold strokes of modern art and natural aesthetics – demonstrates his versatility as an artist and his commitment to an ever-evolving creative process, from the draft on paper, to the canvas or the sculptural supports.

Through these works, Ballocca explores the concept of belief, merging symbols and language to create a multi-layered narrative. The importance of this work to the artist is clear, as it not only
represents his artistic skills but also his ability to weave complex ideas into his creations.
