“Forme uniche della continuità nello spazio”
“Unique forms in the continuity of space“.
Bronze 2017/2025 Made for Bella Esperanza Foundation .
25x12x6cm socle 120cm h 12x6 . In Marco De Sanctis’ work, cutting through materials is sometimes similar to dissecting
in order reveal more abruptly but also to understand its history. The bronze block
representing a ship being carried by a wave gives the impression of having been taken
directly from a solidified liquid, thus putting an end to any naturalistic conception of the
landscape. The reference given by the title: Unique forms in the continuity of space, is seen
in the hollow part of matter recreating the waves, like the artifices used by Boccioni to
create effects of dynamism, ironically compared here to a non-futuristic phenomenon: the
force of nature.

The bronze branch of Marco De Sanctis is on view in the show ‘It’s all real’ at Hopstreet Gallery Brussels.
The plastic approach of Marco De Sanctis (b. 1983, lives and works in Brussels) simultaneously addresses the status of the image, the notion of time and the act of creation. Time is a crucial concept for understanding the artist’s work and his latest production. It becomes a concept to be re-envisioned; it functions as a quantifiable entity necessary for the creative process as well as for the intimate experience requested by the works. Mediums are plural. They question the object as much as the environment in which it is hosted, so that the image/constructed object is no longer anecdotal but very much essential to understanding the work.

The message is never political; it simply witnesses a profound thought. It is the visible image of an
invisible truth, food for thought for the viewer, who re-appropriates the act of creation by perpetuating it.

"Marco De Sanctis‘ engravings are, in this sense, a celebration of the eye that goes beyond known territory and of the mind that, thanks to visual memory, completes the image.
Representation then, but also interpretation, the same that astrophysicists use to fill in the altered and illegible parts in images captured by scientific instruments. One can perhaps devise a taxonomy of interpretation, a science which includes the variables dictated by imagination".
(From Giulia De Giorgi critic text)
