Naufragio 2003

"Naufragio" (2003) by Carlo Maria Mariani is a surrealist painting depicting a nude woman falling through a sky filled with red and white geometric structures. The woman's outstretched hand and frantic expression suggest a sense of desperation and impending doom. Mariani's use of sharp lines and stark colors creates a jarring and unsettling composition that reflects the anxieties of modern life. The fragmented and disorienting cityscape further adds to the sense of chaos and disarray. This work exemplifies the artistic style of the Italian artist, known for his use of symbolism and his exploration of the human condition in a contemporary context.
