This evocative wall sculpture by Vera Vizzi, titled VITA, forms part of the artist’s ongoing exploration of maritime themes and human vulnerability. Crafted in mixed media on reclaimed wood, the piece presents a poetic seascape made of three stacked wooden blocks, each painted in shifting shades of deep blue and stormy grey to evoke a layered oceanic horizon. Atop the highest block sits a delicate miniature boat with small figures, amplifying the sense of fragility and scale. The composition recalls coastal environments and states of emotional suspension—between movement and stillness, presence and absence. The textured surfaces and chromatic modulation suggest tides, foam, and sediment, while the figurative element introduces a narrative of journey, survival, or return. Like much of Vizzi’s work, VITA resonates with themes of resilience, the pull of memory, and our longing for connection with the sea. This one-of-a-kind sculpture belongs to the artist’s new 2024 collection and is ready to hang. Ideal for collectors interested in contemporary marine art, mixed media assemblage, or metaphorical sculpture.
