An Interview with Simone Geraci.


Who and where are you from?

My name is Simone Geraci. I come from Palermo, where I currently live and work.

How you got into this?

My studies in Palermo were crucial in this regard. Thanks to the influence of dedicated teachers, I had the opportunity to look in greater depth techniques and composition, through a constant confrontation with the masters of the past.

What is your driving force?

I strongly believe that each piece of work has its own beneficiary, in symbiosis with one another.

What kind of work you do and why?

Oriented towards the analysis of the individual, my research focuses on the human drifts and peers into psychological shades and human introspection through the centralization of the figures.

Androgynous figures – dreamy and vivid – or silently screaming portraits that take their shape through the void, are harnessed to geometric landscapes and solid volumes that stand over and immobilize the main characters of the work.

They remains helpless, as immersed in a primordial amber. Here filters and canvas, along with playing a compositional and aesthetic role, become cages with clear and definite borders, where the individual relocate himself in an immutable and timeless present.

There is a continuous play of references, aimed to highlight the importance of the dyadic and choral relationship between work and consumer. The variability and distribution of the employed lakes, as well as the physical contradictions of slate works, intend to emphasize the indissoluble link between the parts, essential for a work art to be defined as such.
