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.
