Title: Purgatory > Artist Name: "VANNOZZI" Michael Antonio Vannozzi Signed: Verso Size: 43” H X 32” W X 1.5” D Artwork Dated: 12 / 2014 Art Style: Biomorphic Abstraction Art Method: Hand Painted Acrylic on Shaped Wood Board Medium: Acrylic Paint with Swarovski Crystals as Eyes Material / Ground: Shaped Wood Board Description: A predominantly Black Curvilinear Biomorphic shaped piece, with a multitude of Biomorphic shaped personages, creating a representation of a huge dimly lit auditorium full of “Souls”, all of whom, are staring back through a porthole at the person who is viewing the artwork. The eyes of each “Soul” utilize Swarovski Crystals that twinkle, and seem to glow, through their refraction of light, intensifying eerie the effect of Eyes looking back at the person viewing the Artwork. The personages are larger at the front of the painting and brighter in tone; gradually reducing in size and increasing in tone of darkness, giving the illusion of great depth, and a large multitude of Souls. The perimeter of the piece employs a stippling effect of black dots of paint creating texture.
