Enry Sant (Enrico Santelli) - Rome Has Disappeared

Landscape has always been a central theme in artistic research, both as a setting, as a backdrop, and as a subject itself. The naturalistic depiction of landscape has been a major aspiration for artists of every era. Each historical period has offered its own interpretation of landscape, contributing to the evolution of its depiction: first with an exploration of space, through Brunelleschi's perspective in the early Renaissance; then with atmospheric rendering in the sixteenth century; and finally with the depiction of every single vibration of light on objects in Impressionism.

For artist Enry Sant, depicting landscape means achieving, through painting, a delicate fusion between naturalistic rendering and poetry. Indeed, his views, in which he employs a purely figurative language, remain rooted in sensory data. Yet reality seems transfigured into a lyrical interpretation that almost transports it into a dreamlike dimension. Formally, this translates into a highly delicate pictorial style where reality is represented in a rarefied manner. This means that the capture of realistic details and particulars is lost in favor of a more expressionistic and symbolic language. Enry Sant's refined pictorial touch, which delicately synthesizes objects, plays a key role in this process. Thus, the color palette is also distinguished by a subtle anti-naturalistic tendency, with the immersion in white and yellow expressing the artist's poetic sensibility and his almost dreamlike interpretation of the landscape.

Enrico Santelli, known as Enry Sant, is a figurative painter who, through extensive research, has developed his own coherent and original language. His representations draw on reality, but through a delicate, symbolist pictorial conception, nature is transfigured into a poetic dreamlike dimension.
