Raffaele Rossi was born in 1956 in Alba, in the province of Cuneo. The artist’s works, born from a perfect balance between construction and gesture, are characterized by the use of thick surfaces, made with particular aggregates such as marble dust, sands and natural adhesives. He experiments with plaster and fresco, creating dense material surfaces that accompany his entire artistic production. His painting reveals mental states and elements of the unconscious by bringing a highly allusive language to the canvas in an abstract way. Evanescent images emerge that lead the viewer into another world. Natural references – water, earth, air and fire – mix with landscapes of the soul, the sea and the cosmos.
