Laracamallo is a mysterious name. As mysterious as the feelings two completely different creatures have for one another. Despite appearances and obstacles, a hen and a deer will teach us that love breaks down any barrier. A collaborative story, illustrated with a brush and many pastels by Simone Berti and Alessandro Sarra.
Simone Berti (Adria, 1966) is a visual artist who works in various media: from painting to drawing, from sculpture to video. His work is characterized by a reflection on the precariousness and uncertainty of reality, conveyed by juxtaposing figures – whether human, animal, or inanimate against a white background against which they stand out enigmatically.
Alessandro Sarra (Rome, 1966) is an abstract painter. His paintings on canvas, paper, or panel are the result of layers of different colors – almost transparent or textural, diaphanous or intense – sometimes crisscrossed by marks: his work reflects on painting as time that becomes space and language. At times, the color spills off the canvas and invades the surrounding space.
