"Monogatari: A Journey into Japanese Aesthetics."

In the evocative world of contemporary art, where innovation and tradition intertwine in a timeless dialogue, the "Monogatari" series of paintings emerges powerfully. This extraordinary collection, curated by artist Martin Lucchini, enchants the eyes and soul through a profound tribute to Japanese art, with a surprising and unusual technique: string art.

The "Monogatari" series consists of four works, each exploring a different facet of Japanese culture, masterfully capturing the inherent magic of Japan. The choice to depict Hokusai's iconic "Wave," a geisha, a samurai and a cherry blossom tree is a tribute to four fundamental pillars of Japanese culture. But it is the string art technique, surprising in its boldness and originality, that gives these works a unique atmosphere.
