Artwork Description

Arrrr

It's a pirate. It's the flag of a pirate with the classic crossed bones behind a skull.

It's a pirate, but with a smile.

Reducing art down to its essentials, to simple black and white lines (on a yellow background, this time), inspired by Pop Art icons like Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat and by the street art and graffiti I use to see every day walking through London.

I painted it without too much planning but, after painting it, I liked it so much that it has become my logo and it has started a bit of an obsession with painting skulls.

Pier Vittone 3 artworks | 0 Sold

I'm a self-taught artist who likes to experiment with all sorts of techniques, supports and styles; from acrylic paintings to digital art, and from collages to small objects and furniture.

Currently, I'm mostly focusing on minimal acrylic paintings of magical, silly, weird creatures that take a bit from Keith Haring, a bit from primitive art, and a bit from some corner of my childhood memories - at the same time, experimenting with reusing, refurbishing and upcycling canvases, wooden boards and really anything that can be painted on.

I'm also an illustrator and I sell prints of my digital drawings of some of WA's historical and beloved grocery shops, pubs, bars and various buildings, on my Etsy store.

I was born and raised in Italy where I grew up surrounded by Classical, Medieval and Renaissance art.

In my 20s I started travelling the world, moving first to France, then to London for a long time and now to Australia, always going to museums and exhibitions anytime I could, discovering new 'non-traditional' form of arts from Banksy graffiti to native art.

Today, I made WA my home, splitting my time between Perth and Margaret River, where I'm currently setting up a studio all for me and my art.
