"Vertigo," a compelling piece within the artist's "Horror Vacui" series, encapsulates a profound exploration of time, addiction, and consumerism. In this handmade collage, meticulously crafted from bottles cutouts sourced from magazines, newspapers, beverages catalogs, and mostly supermarket coupons, the rejection of empty space becomes a deliberate visual manifesto.

The artwork showcases a whirl of wine bottles, forming a mesmerizing vortex that symbolizes the artist's personal experience with alcohol and its disorienting effects. The composition, whether centrifugal or centripetal, mirrors the chaotic nature of addiction, avoiding moralizing and instead presenting it as part of the artist's intricate contemplation.

The vibrant yet ambiguous color palette, predominantly featuring tones of green, emphasizes the commonality of wine bottles—ranging from expensive to affordable—in the societal whirl of indulgence. The intentional density of the composition echoes the artist's defiance of visual voids, contributing to the overall theme of "Horror Vacui."

Through the lens of contemporary collage, "Vertigo" invites viewers to navigate the intricate tapestry of existence, offering a disorienting yet thought-provoking exploration of the complexities inherent in the human experience.

Romeo Madonna (London, 1987) is a collage artist based in Florence where he currently lives and works.

A self-taught visual artist, collage - both digital and analog - represents his favorite means of expression, the investigative method of his research and the synthesis of the philosophy underlying his artistic practice.

A film student at the Roma Tre University with the aim of becoming a screenwriter, he attended the Academy of Fine Arts because he was obsessed with engraving and printing techniques. His professional experiences in the field of mixology and luxury retail contributed significantly to defining the traits and themes of his artistic identity, fusing a digital approach with traditional techniques.

Visions of time, beauty, identity and death are recurring themes in his works.
