Andrea Solaja

Matter research, literally. On my canvas I display the bond with the salvific nature of the elements by using the materials that I collect in the natural environment. Clays, limestone powder, burnt wood, barks. The research for the pigments which perfectly convey my meaning drives me to get lost along barely ridden Karst trails and into the caves where calcite becomes veins and arteries which emerge from the heart of the earth. It’s pure alchemy. #andreasolaja Drawing Art Painting Pittura

“Semi di luce” the totems in #cirmolo designed for the exhibition ‘Ex voto. Artists for Rosalia,’ Palermo 2022. The union of the North and the South, Mountains and Seas, one single language. This project evokes a strong connection between natural and cultural elements, symbolizing unity between different regions and traditions through art. Pine, a noble and luminous wood, could be seen as a material that unites earth and light, while the totems, which evoke a spiritual and ancestral language...
From raw timber to intricate art—each cut, each carve is a journey. The process of transforming wood into sculpture is both meditative and challenging, but it’s the passion that keeps me going. It’s not just about the end result; it’s about the connection to the material, the rhythm of the craft, and the story that slowly unfolds with every movement of the chisel. And through it all, I never lose sight of the fun—because creating art should always be a joy. #woodsculpture #craftsmanship #ar...

In the world of art, sustainability is becoming increasingly important, not only in the production of artworks but also in their transportation and packaging. One widely adopted solution for shipping paintings, especially those on canvas, is rolling the artwork to save space and reduce shipping costs. Beyond the practicality of this method, it also presents an opportunity to make more environmentally responsible decisions.

Wrapping up a few creative sessions in the studio these past few days—feeling inspired and ready for what’s next!
Black, red, and grey. The Karst, from where I have chosen to draw my inspiration, pours into me its colours which shatter against the wall I have inside. I feel chromatic landslides, hollows of thoughts that urge to break free. This land, so rough and ferrous where the blinding white of the limestone stands out and dominates the whole environment has understood my narrative urge. There I find the matter for my works every time. I plunge my hands into the red soil and with the world I become one. The light expands again inside me. I am born again. The heat is no longer the one I felt on my face while my whole body was freezing. It permeates me now. I took the veil off. Each warm pulsation of the flame is followed by a stroke on the canvas. It’s yours. It’s me.
Wishing You a Creative Christmas! — Andrea Solaja

“The chiaroscuro of the sculpture ‘Leaf II’ beautifully emphasizes the interplay between light and shadow, revealing the intricate details of its organic form. The subtle variations in tone create a dynamic sense of movement, drawing the viewer’s eye and inviting closer inspection. This interplay not only enhances the sculpture’s depth but also evokes a sense of nature’s elegance, making it a captivating piece for any space.” Swiss pine, 2024 #woodsculpture #andreasolaja #sculpturelovers

This work is made from mixed media on jute. Jute is a natural fiber obtained from plants of the Corchorus genus; it is a hard fibre, therefore the fabrics resulting from it are rough and resistant with a classic regular weave. Being a natural fabric, jute is 100% biodegradable and recyclable.
