Space Invader - 2016 - is part of the Intruders collection 2014-2017.
The Intruders research evolved into a serial tergeted practice exploration of the urban context. A continuous strategic study of the territory, non metropolitan cities, catalouing and research object.
The "INTRUDERS" are precicly the predatotors frozen in an istant immediatly happening befor the action.
It's the evolution of a contemporary research which goes beyond the urban space of the metropoly non places, that fully embraces street art and graffiti world in subtle parallelism a predator subject and pray to its habitat.
The artist outline a free, indipendent, watchful, solitary, but above all, night-watcher, who moved silently fast to reach and conquer his prey.The feline movement are careful, weighted, immediate probably overlapping, with those of the writer. A constant mimic between lights and shadows, between legality and provocation, leaving that silent impression which can scream in the chaos of the city.
It is easy to highlight how there is a clear technical difference with the works created in 2015.

Space Invader the question of time, or rather, of the fragmentation experience in urban contemporaneity, introduces on last interesting notation: the reflection that the highlighted components have on the pictorial language and hence the linguistic evolution of the same subjects in the years from 2015-2017.
In the first works gaze at the figurative, showing some attention to the continuity of color, to the legibility and to the rendering of the subjects, the more recent ones tend to favor several contrasted representations, whit more broken up and fragmented figures.
The cat is a predator, instinctive, surgical, rapid, territotrial, is therefore the metaphor of the writer, whose felinity, as said, is indispensable, and explains Indruders' subject and many of the previously mentioned titles.
