“Mediterraneo” tells the stories and colors of remote places and countries, holding tightly to their identity and returning them into a personal and intimate vision that is expressed through a hybrid of abstract and figurative.

“Mediterraneo” is the result of a meditative process that merges shapes and species from the surrounding environment, defining the work of Italian artist TELLAS (Fabio Schirru).

During this residency at Varsi Lab, collage is investigated as an exercise that overlaps meditation with artistic gesture. Tellas re-works and gives uniqueness to a technique that strongly influenced the 20th century and is still considered avant-garde.

Tellas declines his artistic vision through what for him represents, along with drawing, the most natural form of expression, a point of departure and return to the primordial study of form and color.

In an endless virtuosity, the series consists of nine unique screen prints and monotype on fabric works, as well as two series of limited edition prints on paper.
