The puppet child

€1.890,00

"The Puppet Child" by Massimiliano Precisi is a work that mixes sharp irony, social criticism and an explosion of symbolism in a composition on recycled canvas. At the center of the scene, a child-puppet stands in a grotesque position, surrounded by a chaotic set of human and anthropomorphic figures. The distorted expressions and surreal details of the figures convey a feeling of control and collective bewilderment.

The graphic details, such as the enigmatic can of "Nuova DaFi" and the table with a plate in the center, add a satirical and irreverent touch to the composition. The contrast between the bright colors and the irregular contours creates a fragmented narrative that ranges between political allegory and reflection on manipulated childhood. The intense gazes of the figures, some almost expressionless, seem to directly question the observer, inviting him to decipher the hidden meaning behind their theatricality.

The recycled canvas, with its visible imperfections, amplifies the sense of authenticity and spontaneity. Precisi signs here a powerful and provocative work, which reflects on social control and the loss of innocence, transforming a chaotic scene into a visual manifesto full of meanings.

Massimiliano Precisi

Art as revelation: rawness, truth, impact

Massimiliano Precisi, master of pictorial irreverence , is an Italian artist who has conquered not only national stages, but also prestigious international galleries, from the United Kingdom to the United Arab Emirates , up to Switzerland .

His work, ferocious and merciless , is a hymn to human hypocrisy , not to celebrate it but to unmask it, stripping it away with crude brushstrokes and sharp symbolism.

A visual language between masks and disintegrations

His universe is populated by masks , multifaceted faces and anatomical fragments , which tell stories of falsehood, illusions and moral breakdowns .
Precise, an alchemist of materials , he expertly mixes acrylics, oils, pencils and collages on all types of supports – from canvas to wood – transforming them into real emotional and social battlefields .

Artist's Manifesto

"Art is not what you see, but what you allow others to see."

This is his manifesto and his warning : looking at his works means confronting what we often prefer to ignore .
