In his piece FLORA, Claude BLO RICCI plays with the building architecture and the landscape by proposing a giant collage-painting involving shapes, lines and textures to invite the viewer into this surreal abstract landscape.

About the artist

Claude BLO RICCI uses creativity as a device to question, invert or pervert aspects of daily life. There is a recognisable speed of the hand, looseness of line, as well as composition and materials that directly draw from traditional graffiti.

His current street work has become more figurative, drawing from religious imagery, sex, death, and classical painting. Within the exploration of this subject matter another parallel to graffiti is conceptualised the assertion of power by actively defacing or reappropriating common images.

This artwork was created as part of the 2024 Wall to Wall Festival
