Italian artist Roberto Ciredz recently finished his recent mural, in collaboration with Ludovica Frauu, in Cagliari, Italy, for the Panda, a spontaneous project of experimental urban art. The mural responds to his abstract research directed towards Nature, producing a new site-specific work that ranges between street and land art.
About the mural
The mural, whose style reflects the abstract Ciredz’s research turned towards Nature and its typical forms, represents the dialectic between two opposites: rigidity and softness, artificial and natural. On one side the rigid lines and geometric compositions created by Ludovica Frauu, on the other the soft flexuosities of the Ciredz undulations. The piece was created in a semi-abandoned green area of the city of Cagliari. The link with nature, contaminated by the urban landscape surrounding the area, seems to follow the natural-artificial discourse invoked by the artists. Furthermore, the chromatic choice of black and white still follows this dichotomy that is resolved by the central point of union that connects the two opposites, finding a balance.
