Peppe Gueli was born in Sicily, where he grew up breathing herbs flavors
and colors of the middle of the Mediterranean.
Now he lives and works in Pescara crossroads of old and new cultures,
here he has expanded his Mediterranean culture with new emotions coming from
the close mountains and the cold Balcanian winds.
From Sicily channel to the Adriatic Sea, not only a space-movement, but
in some ways even a space-time jump, which makes restless Gueli’s soul, that
always tries to transmit emotions through his works.
Gueli's artistic path coincides with his life path, his artistic
evolution exactly reflects his human growth; the search for roots, the
difficulty of revealing oneself to others, the difficulty of living once with
too many contradictions where appearance is more important than being, therefore
the need to stop and meditate on the fundamental themes of life, these are some
aspects of life and therefore artistic path of Gueli.
His research path is marked
by a mixture of techniques whose roots are fixed in the different elements that
mark Gueli's training: woodworking, painting, attention to the territory are
all elements that come together in his artistic creations .
Simplicity, linearity, removing rather than adding are fundamental
characteristics of his being, and therefore of his works.
