Retouché of the contemporary Italian artist Meloniski da Villacidro. A small, fairytale-like town stretches out under a red sunset sky. There is no human presence, yet the windows illuminated by the interior lights show that the city is inhabited. The only dynamic element is given by the ears of corn in the foreground drawn as if they were moved by the wind. Overall, the atmosphere of the work instills serenity.

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.
