Alberto Sordi
Abissus Abissum Invocat - Original Mixed Media by Alberto Sordi - 2005

2005

About the Item

Abissus Abissum Invocat is one of the best works realized by Alberto Sordi in 2005. The scenario is apocalyptic, from Twilight of the Gods: on the parchment of the title, inspired by a biblical passage, the face of Joachim of Fiore emerges; the celestial abyss is reflected in hell, a figurative expression of "The Last Cataclysm" by Tyutcev, among a crowd that includes Jacopone da Todi, Frederick of Swabia, Kierkegaard, Pascal, medieval knights and more. In the background, the destruction of idols, ancient cities and modern skyscrapers. The televisions below broadcast images of Dostoevsky, Philip Dick, Bin Laden, a Japanese kamikaze and The Old Man of the Mountain. The New Humanity marches fearlessly through the Kaos and the arcane symbologies, along the rope stretched over the abyss described in "Thus Spoke Zarathustra". Hand-signed on the back. Perfect conditions.

  • Large Animal Wall Sculpture: 'Wormhole'
    By Gin Stone
    Located in New York, NY
    'I am a multidisciplinary artist with a focus on ecofeminism using fiber and mixed media constructions. My materials include hand-dyed commercially fished line and ghost gear, recycled and antique textiles, fabric printed with cyanotype emulsions and found objects. I change the existing surface of recognizable animals by creating a veneer of unexpected color and imagery. This forces the viewer to consider the shape more carefully by visually exploring its new topography. The creation process can be likened to painting with fiber (that has been tinted with hand-mixed dyes) on a three-dimensional canvas. Intense work is spent creating the eyes and ears to convey the emotion of each animal. I look to the work of Joan Mitchell and The Quilters of Gee’s Bend as inspiration for pattern and color, as well as charts, iconography, and satellite imaging.' -Gin Stone...

  • Shopping Cart: 'The Great Resignation Baggage Cart, Emotional Baggage Cart'
    By Theda Sandiford
    Located in New York, NY
    'My Emotional Baggage Carts are vessels to dispose of racial trauma. The act of making, weaves the sting of macro and microaggressions into the cart, freeing me from these constraints. Each recovered shopping cart is unique, but they all are woven with upcycled materials like rope, paracord, grocery bags, rope lights, beads, fabric, and bottle caps. The cart is with a protective zip tie blanket to trap trauma and prevent its escape. For me, my Emotional Baggage Carts are a release, for you, they are an opportunity to look within and recognize any emotional baggage you, yourself may be carrying and release it.' Theda Sandiford...
