THE ARTWORK
A light fantastic presence stands against black in Enrico Baj’s Il grillo di palude. Its angular body and fine extremities gather above a base of wavy lines beneath a suspended oval form.
The etching connects minute marks with the background’s strong contrast. The title suggests an animal, yet the image remains open to invention: a small graphic creature built between irony, fragility and surprise.
