In Abstract Identities, we dive deep into the profound transformation of the artistic self. Departing from the familiar realm of monstrous identities, the exhibition unveils a diverse cast of artworks, each imbued with its own distinct character and narrative of space and liberation.

Compared to the beginning of Solomostry’s artistic career with bold designs and heavy fluorescent colors, his production from the street has developed inside the studio. The artist has made new that no longer refer to graffiti, but to the Italian history of art as well as being inspired by family memories. Values are both aesthetic, emotional, and also conceptual.

Across a spectrum of media, from traditional painting to sculpture and flags, the artist invites audiences to navigate a multi-dimensional experience within the exhibition space. This eclectic fusion of artistic forms promises to ignite curiosity and evoke a sense of wonder as viewers explore the convergence of diverse expressions.

„ The values behind the new body of work are aesthetic and emotional and also conceptual.“

Solomostry, 2024.

At its core as well as the Abstract Identities is the artist’s evolution and experimentation, a testament to his relentless pursuit of growth and evolution. Shapes and colors evolve from vibrant fluorescents to muted tones, while forms shift from angular to sinuous and clean, echoing a deeper search for balance and harmony.

Drawing inspiration from abstract art from the 1960s and Italian Arte Povera, the artist immerses himself in the aesthetics contrast between raw materials, captivated by the timeless artistic expression.

Courage is found in embracing emptiness. Void, as a concept rooted in physical absence, signifies the absence of matter. Emptiness, however, emerges within the realm of imagination. An artistic dialogue flourishes between the juxtaposed poles of fullness and void. It’s within the presence of the perception of the void that’s inviting us to see from a different perspective.
