About this artwork
An Italian artist on walls as well as on canvas, Davide Maria Seme grew up with the hip-hop culture of his country. He evolves in this universe and learns graffiti culture by assimilating and mixing numerous techniques. Davide participates in several jams initially with a 3d style with other graffiti artists, then develops the stencil technique. From the world of hip hop at the Academy of Fine Arts of Catania to the discovery of the universe of the great classic myths that we find in his latest works developed on cardboard and with street pop influences, Davide Maria is a mixture of artists and style. In his works he applies various contemporary and political themes alternating with his thoughts on modern society. His works contain questions and points of view on everyday and contemporary facts. Stencil art and spray art are his favorite techniques, applied to urban supports such as road signs, wood, cardboard, stones, etc.

About the artist
In the series, an in-depth study of classical or modern works and sculptures in a street pop style is created, Davide Maria Seme creates his works starting from the photograph of a situation, and then arriving, through a process that includes photography - graphics - stencil technique - painting, at the end of the work, which is often made with the spray technique with stencil art, thus obtaining classic shapes and subjects in a pop - street style. Although the artist uses manual techniques of stencil art (manual cutting on paper using a cutter, cutting lines that can reach up to 200 M for a single stencil) the use of the "free hand" is fundamental and becomes the artist's trademark. Active since 2003 in Italy, his works made with different supports are known internationally, and present in various European collections and beyond.
