SICIS - Wonderful Collection

“Si può esistere senza arte,

ma senza di essa non si può vivere.”

“You can exist without art, but without it you cannot live.” Oscar Wilde

Preface

Si è scelto il nome “Wonderful” per questa raccolta di opere in mosaico considerando proprio la meraviglia e lo stupore che si prova ogni volta che si osserva una creazione di Sicis. Realizzare decori con mosaici artistici, creare disegni di ineguagliabile bellezza, inventare ‘trompe l'oeil’ grazie alle infinite cromie delle Collezioni, tutto questo ha permesso a Sicis di produrre e divulgare nel mondo la preziosità del mosaico come espressione d’arte che diventa elemento di design contemporaneo nella decorazione di ambienti. Le tessere tagliate una ad una dalle sapienti mani di maestri mosaicisti, diventano pennellate, luce, colore che attraverso la materia danno dimensione e forza creativa all’intera opera. Le proposte stilistiche seguono ispirazioni diverse e le suggestioni sono tratte da un’attenta analisi dei dettagli e dalle iconografie storiche, dando sfogo a libere interpretazioni dei temi della natura ma anche di temi astratti, fino ad elaborazioni che ricordano i trend artistici delle più importanti correnti storiche dell’arte contemporanea. Si enfatizza dunque la bellezza dell’arte stessa, come in una galleria, dove il pubblico, la critica, vivono nel dialogo tra l’ambiente che accoglie l’arte rappresentata e le tante sfaccettature come materia, studio, innovazione e genialità creativa. Il mosaico artistico esce dagli schemi e diventa un linguaggio nuovo e universale: qualità della bellezza italiana. The name "Wonderful" was chosen for this set of mosaic works, considering the wonder and the amazement that is felt every time a Sicis creation is observed. Making artistic mosaics, designs of unparalleled beauty, inventing 'trompe l'oeil' thanks to the endless colors of the glass mosaic collections, all this has allowed Sicis to produce and divulge in all the world the preciousness of the mosaic as an expression of art that becomes an element of contemporary design in the decoration of environments. The tiles cut one by one by the expert hands of mosaic masters, become brushstrokes fo light, color that through the material give dimension and creative force to the whole work. The stylistic proposals follow different inspirations and the suggestions are drawn from a careful analysis of details and historical iconographies, giving vent to free interpretations of the themes of nature but also of abstract themes, to elaborations reminiscent of the artistic trends of the most important contemporary art currents. The beauty of art itself is emphasized, as in a gallery, where the public, the critics, live in the dialogue between the environment that host the art represented and the many facets such as matter, study, innovation and creative genius. The artistic mosaic becomes a new and universal language: the quality of Italian beauty.
