ONE BLOOD - Introduction

THIS IS A PROJECT DEDICATED TO THE EXPLORATION OF HUMAN BEINGS’ ESSENCE

The heart of this body of work is a series of portraits that Salvatore creates with the subjects’ own blood.
This project started in Rio De Janeiro, a city of great contrasts, social disparity and racial issues that inspired the artist to work on the element common to all human beings: their own blood… RED



Symbol of the identity of human beings, Blood is the fundamental substance from which people differences are rooted.
The artworks will preserve forever the subjects’ blood and create a legacy for the generations to come: a new organic portrait of our time.
