About The Artwork

This is one of 4 tiny steel plates I have made between this summer and autumn. I wanted to give more space to the rust, to let it inspiring me and not to force too much towards a shape or a figure, unless was this the intention of the rust itself. I have used different elements (water, salt, sugar, lemon juice for example) on each plate to see the different reactions. Thats' why I call them "Little Experiment", although in the end they might suggest me a new, or at least parallel, direction. In this case I had the feeling the rust was shaping a frog, and so there it is, mor or less, between real and abstract. The final important part is the resin coat I poured to protect the plate but at the same time to creat a new thick, glossy layer, almost as now there's a layer of water on top of everything. The steel plate is 1 mm thick and it's sustained by 4 little copper pipes containing each a magnet, to hang the work on the wall.

Sabatino Cersosimo was born in Turin in 1974. He studied advertising design and then received a Degree in Painting and Decoration at the Academy of Fine Arts of Turin in 1999. Since 2011 he lives and works in Berlin. Following a line that has its roots in a certain expressionist painting (especially the Viennese Secession) but evolves through the modern mediterranean and english realism, he uses basically two surfaces: metal and wood. Since he mainly paints with oil and oxidation on steel plates, the concepts of time, will and chance have been crucial to the development of his research. Art is historically considered eternal, but Cersosimo's paintings underscore art’s metamorphic nature. Here, we witness artwork as it is developing, shifting, and in some cases, mutating into other forms, much like the elements of nature on the planet. Cersosimo's paintings mirror constellations of humanity in tiny particles. In doing so, they feature many of the commonalities shared among human beings across culture, language, gender, and race.
