About

ANTONINO TINDARO RICCIARDO

...

An early interest in drawing and painting characterised Antonino’s artistic sensibility.

After graduating from art school (Liceo Artistico), he began his career in the world of graphic design, embarking on a path that still sees him working as an advertising designer.

Painting, however, was and remains, for Antonino, an act of creative possibility, freeing his spirit from constraints and rules, in a new exploratory frontier beyond the world of graphic design. He has never stopped painting and, indeed, in recent years, has decided to further deepen his connection with art, dedicating himself more deeply to this profession.

Alongside his career in advertising graphics, he has therefore successfully integrated painting into his daily life. This dual vocation allows him to explore his creativity through two complementary facets, enriching his overall artistic expression.

In Antonino’s world, art becomes an extraordinary journey through the heart and mind. His brushstrokes, imbued with passion, capture the essence of human emotions, transforming the canvas into a symphony of colours and shapes. His abstract is an invitation to embrace the unexplored, a visceral experience that speaks directly to the emotions, where art becomes a vibrant celebration of life and creativity.

The act of painting becomes an intimate dance between Antonino and the universe, a choreography of gestures revealed through a profound connection with the material itself.
