Silvio Merlino: Beings of Light
Inspired by Italian landscapes, Italian artist Silvio Merlino creates magical environments where the power of nature collides with man鈥檚 struggle to control it. Through his work we enter day-glo fantasies of a universe where beauty, elegance and grace are created through phantasmagorical collages utilizing fake fur, flippers, corals, glass candy and grated glass that shimmers.
