In this dreamlike work, Meloniski depicts a graceful female figure playing the flute from a rooftop of a building in an imaginary city at dusk, creating a little concert that sounds more like a dream than reality. At the top we find a crescent moon silhouetted against a night sky. Extremely dear to Meloniski from Villacidro, the themes of music and the nocturnal are often the context of his imaginary and fantastic scenes. Always an experimenter with various different techniques, Meloniski also combines different types of three-dimensional inserts in this work, thus creating an alternation of plastic and dynamic surfaces.
The work is signed by the artist in the lower right-hand corner and the artist's stamp can be found in the lower left-hand corner. Circa 2020.
1943 Villacidro, Italy
Meloniski was born in Villacidro, in Sardinia, in 1943. He is a painter, a sculptor and a ceramist and his distintive trait consist in using many techniques and in the experimentation of different materials.
His works are characterized by a dreamful and fantastic atmosphere: thin shapes fluctuate in nocturnal skies where sparkling stars shine. We can find in his works bright colours and love for uncontaminated nature of his hometown.
Self-taught artist who travels all over Europe until he sets up home in Paris and then in Milan. In French capital he studies ancient masterpieces, modern and contemporary art visiting the great museums.
Meloniski keeps on looking for the truth. His apparently fantastic works hide great metaphores about human beings and his detachment from nature. Even his love for flight is protagonist of his famous retouchés where also fishes and boats plough magic nocturnal seas.
