{"product_id":"silvia-idili-senza-titolo-3","title":"Silvia Idili - Untitled","description":"\u003cp\u003eSurrealist aesthetics emerged around the 1920s and encompassed all fields of artistic research. Specifically, in the visual arts, Surrealism sought to explore the human subconscious and translate it into artwork through a mechanical writing process based on dream analysis. Consequently, Surrealist artworks propose the representation of a dreamlike dimension, completely dissociated from reality. However, this representation often relies on a hyperrealistic formal rendering, precisely to paradoxically accentuate the illusory and ambiguous nature of the surreal dimension. Given the type of subjects she proposes, artist Silvia Idili can also be classified as a Surrealist aesthetic, but compared to the historical avant-garde, her work is entirely original, blending Symbolism and Metaphysics. The Sardinian-born painter develops this particular poetics of mystery and anxiety in two main types of subject matter. Choral scenes of everyday and family nature and portraits, mainly of women.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eThe work in question is part of the genre scenes that Silvia Idili reworks in her surreal and symbolist aesthetic of anxiety and mystery. What is depicted is entirely plausible and part of a reality of simple gestures, small family scenes. But Silvia Idili transfers everything into her surreal dimension of enigma, starting from the very space she envisions. Nature practically disappears, giving way to a dark, essential, and desolate setting, constructed in a duotone of green and black. Silvia Idili's characters move within this undefined space, and as they perform their seemingly simple gestures, they are suddenly struck by some disturbing element. These elements often identify with two recurring themes in Silvia Idili's work: the heavy, decadent drapery intended to conceal some truth that must remain unspoken, or the geometric solid, metaphysical and alienating, mysterious in its very being. The work in question also falls within those that, only apparently, represent ordinary family scenes. In this case, the portrait of the two girls conceals the literary and cinematic suggestion of a double, a rival, a self-other. Formally, Silvia Idili's works of this kind exhibit a stylistic coherence, evident in a simplicity that, in a two-dimensional space, delineates the subjects with few details, making them even more enigmatic. Their clothes, charmingly antiquated, form compact chromatic zones that create carefully studied color harmonies. In this context, Silvia Idili's brushstrokes cannot fail to be homogeneous, even if rich in existential vibrations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eSilvia Idili was born in Cagliari in 1982. She graduated from the Cagliari State Art School in 1999-2000 and lives and works in Milan. Silvia Idili works in painting and illustration. She approached oil painting almost by chance and has continued to use it ever since. Her dreamlike visions take shape within complex interior landscapes, composed of flat backgrounds and a few enigmatic elements that compel the viewer's gaze to linger on. Long established in the art world, Silvia Idili has exhibited her work in numerous shows both in Italy and abroad.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gianluigi Savini","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218102464898,"sku":"gsav010","price":900.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/PHOTO-2022-01-25-11-59-312.jpg?v=1768471116","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/silvia-idili-senza-titolo-3","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
