ARTISTIC RESEARCH
VOLTI DI JACQ
Jacq's art comes from a deep need: describing people.
Why portraying faces?
Every single person is distinguishable, identified and remembered by some of its peculiar body features. Portraying faces without their specific traits, means to gather the soul of the depicted individual.
This project has exsisted since 2016 and It developed in Italy and outside the national borders.
PEOPLE RECOGNIZE THEMSELVES
The artist chooses the person who insispires. The latter is depicted without being informed.
The artwork is shared by the artist on Instragram and the indentity of the subject is revealed by the subject itself, by friends or family members within a short time.
The painting is in turn posted on the social networks by the people involved.
FROM CANVAS TO THE STICKERS
Sharing can also find nonconventional ways. The stickers aim to involve people and to make the project known in the world.
Jacq’s followers ask the artist for the stickers. At a later time the followers post the stickers picture during their journeys around the world.
Jacq’s stickers may be found in New York, London, Rio de Janeiro, Barcelona, Berlin, Shanghai, Pechino, Florence, Venice, Miami, Ibiza, Paris, Lima etc.
