About the artwork

Work from Yuri Catania's Yuri in Wonderland series, where painting, photography, and technology merge into a single language. At its center is an Astro Girl, a space explorer through whom the artist reflects on the relationship between humanity, nature, and the digital world, and on the role of women beyond stereotypes. The sidereal dimension meets the intimate one of the artist's garden in Rovio, at the foot of Monte Generoso: flowers, the moon, and butterflies bear witness to one of the region's most precious and fragile biodiversities. Each work is designed to be experienced. Under the provided UV flashlight, hidden colors and details emerge, visible at the same frequency that insects perceive them on flowers. With augmented reality, by framing the artwork with a smartphone, the image comes to life in an experience of sounds and visions created by the artist. UV fluorescent pigments: the artwork reveals itself in the dark with the UV flashlight supplied with the piece.

The artist

Yuri Catania

Swiss-Italian visual artist, born in Milan in 1975, he lives and works in Rovio, in Val Mara, at the foot of Monte Generoso, home to the CasaGalleria.ART gallery-atelier.

His work combines photography, painting and digital tools in a single language: photographs taken by the artist himself, from the atelier garden to the moon seen through a telescope, are composed, printed, pasted onto concrete and wood supports and repainted with fluorescent acrylics that reveal themselves under ultraviolet light. His main series – Yuri in Wonderland with its Astro Girls, A Day of Flowers, Black Flowers Secret Garden and My Generoso – revolve around a constant theme: the relationship between nature, technology and the human gaze, with the Rovio garden and its biodiversity as the starting point.
