The Edge of Urban Time Series | 2005-2008
The Edge of Urban Time series examines our human encounters with urban environments. Inspired by the re-gentrification of metropolitan communities, Nicola Parente’s art defines the intersection of daily urban life and the timeless multi-cultural celebration, with red as the symbolic color of the heartbeat and life of the city. His paintings capture the fluidity and static elements of the urban matrix, referencing the architectonic images, reflections and rhythms of its landscape.
