Spiaggia 3 1rst exhibition in Paris 2023. Limited

Allow me to paint a vivid scene from the Spiaggia series—a sun-kissed moment frozen in time. The canvas comes alive with the essence of summer, where warmth and desire intertwine.

Spiaggia 3 reveals a captivating tableau: a hairy and muscular bearded man stands at the water’s edge, his feet sinking into the soft sand. The sun, a golden halo, kisses his skin—the hairs on his arms and chest catching the light like gilded threads. His beard, rugged and untamed, frames a face that holds both mystery and allure. The swim trunks cling to his form, emphasizing the contours of his thighs and buttocks—the fabric hinting at secrets beneath.

The water laps at his ankles—clear and inviting. It cradles him, offering respite from the heat of the day. His muscles ripple as he shifts, the play of shadows tracing the curve of his biceps, the strength of his shoulders. And there, at the waistband of his swimsuit, a tantalizing glimpse of hair—the promise of hidden virility.

Beyond him, the horizon stretches—an endless expanse of blue merging with the sky. The air smells of salt and sunscreen, and the distant laughter of beachgoers weaves through the scene. Perhaps he gazes out, lost in reverie, or perhaps he’s waiting for someone—a lover, a fleeting connection under the sun.

In this monochromatic reverie, the Spiaggia series captures more than physical beauty; it immortalizes desire—the ache of summer, the transient magic of encounters by the water. Each illustration whispers of longing, of stolen glances and shared moments, as if the beach itself holds secrets in its grains of sand.
