Numbered, edition of 50 prints. In very good conditions. Placido Scandurra (Santa Maria di Licodia, Sicily, 1947) He lives and works in San Polo dei Cavalieri, around Rome. He trained in Catania, particularly attending the studio of the painter Antonio Villani and the restorer Giovanni Nicolosi. from 1975 to 1977 he attended experimental courses at the National Chalcography of Rome. In the mid-1970s he underwent a profound change toward an introspective vision. from the intense study of Jung's theories and Eastern cultures, the artist has a strong interest in the esoteric spiritual world that leads him to create works of art of an alchemical and surreal kind.
