Blu Tuand (2018) Pittura da Tuand Studio

This grand work of art is the artist’s first major achievement and depicts the murder of Giacomo Identity. Set in the kitchen of the artist’s studio, it is characterized by the detail of the extractor hood at the top right and the carefully arranged cookware on the furniture to the right, to which Giacomo desperately clings in his final moments of life. Each piece of cookware symbolizes a loved one to the artist, imbuing the work with deep personal meaning.

In the distance, to the left, the studio door is visible, its jammed lock suggesting an atmosphere of tension and mystery. The assassin, Tuand, turns towards the viewer in a gesture that challenges the fourth wall, implying that no one is safe, not even the observer. The closed door becomes a symbol of inevitability, suggesting there is no escape.

Interestingly, the murder weapon is not a traditional spear but a simple broomstick, the same used by the artist to paint the piece. Given the enormous size of the painting, the artist innovated by attaching a brush to the broomstick, allowing him to paint from a distance and achieve a more complete overview, as if working on a small A4 sheet.

A final touch of mastery is the application of pure 18-karat gold, laid with an ancient technique but revisited in a modern key, adding a sense of preciousness and transcendence to the entire composition.
