Vertical Pride

Diletta Lucrezi (Diluce) · 2025

An upright force, rising with power, proud and unwavering in its own presence. This work explores the emotion of pride. It is part of the project “Rhapsody on Emotions”, which is inspired by the original meaning of rhapsody: the free and fragmented song of the rhapsodes, who wove verses and images into a passionate and improvised flow. Each painting is an autonomous fragment, part of a larger whole, a visual song composed of emotions captured before they fade. The essence of the project is pausing on a single feeling to explore it more deeply. In a world that pushes us to rush, to live without awareness, and that seeks to make us uniform and numb, each work invites the viewer to reconnect with their inner self and awaken to emotion. The background color of the work is made up of four different types of gold. The work is sized for a stretcher frame of 87 × 87 cm, with a thickness of 2 cm. It is sold unframed and unstretched, rolled up in a cardboard tube. The shipment will be insured. For shipments outside the European Union, please allow an additional 2 weeks for customs documentation (Cultural Heritage validation). Any import taxes or customs duties are the responsibility of the buyer, according to the regulations of the destination country.
