In this work, the inspiration comes from the concept of regeneration and rebirth. Initially expressed by the initial work I did, a rhino horn, re-incarnated in stone (clay), I called the HORN RE-BORN.

It is made up of clay hairs, which, solidifying, create, model and shape the final stone horn; in some kind of artificial natural growth process imitation.

From this first work, the idea was to make the horn RE-BORN again, but no longer with some kind of its original appearance, but with different "CASING"s, made of different materials, different natural elements.

This is how this series developed.

A little like the mythological Phoenix, which every time dies only to reborn, my rhino horn metempsychosis is to reborn every time different, carrying a different message, a different emotion.

This is one of the REGENERATION and REBIRTH series works, made of 10 alterations.

The horn is reborn, it becomes METALLIC. In an evocative steam-punk style, we have the mechanical horn, with its metal plates, gears, pipes.

The colors are cold, neutral; artificial life is not real life.

Artificial rebirth is not a birth.

My name is Alessandro, I live in a small village in the north area of Milan, near the mountains and the lakes. I was born in Milan in 1993, the 22nd of May. I love fine arts since I was a child, drawing and painting was what I liked more at school, from the very beginning. This is for me the best way to express myself and communicate. My objective in fine arts is to express my sensations and my impressions, to make people feel what I feel, to share my passions. So, I use any technique and material I consider appropriate for the specific situation and subject. I use drawing, painting, sculpture and video, but I often look for new ways, new techniques to express what I have inside. I use mixed techniques as collage, drawing and painting together, and I explored new materials and old expressive methods, such as sewing and wire mesh shaping. For instance, I did some compositions using animal horns: in fact, you can draw with anything you have available when you are inspired. For me the search for the "right" colour shade is very important, I try the colours’ shades again and again, until it satisfies the need of the moment. In the end, the colours’ tests become a work in the work, I've collected a lot of them, and every new work still produces news. The recurring theme for me is nature, especially animals, a passion that I carry inside me since I was a child. One of my first drawings, made in the kindergarten, was my dog, Miki, in the backyard. I hope to be able to pass on to you this love of mine for nature, for colors, for what is beautiful, because it is what I care about most.
