During my career as a graffiti writer I have undertaken various trips to paint in various cities. But the best trip was definitely New York, the mecca of graffiti, the city where writing was born. I went to the Big Apple in 2003 to paint my graffiti in the city of dreams, where the masters started the great graffiti movement. I took a lot of pictures on that trip. Back home, I selected the best ones to use for a series of stencil paintings. This work in particular comes from a shot that I personally took at the top of the Empire state builnig, in which you can appreciate the city streets. This shot particularly fascinates me, because leaning out as much as possible I was struck by the perspective of the streets where cars and people were swarming, which from that height looked like ants. The work is made with stencil technique, 8 hand-cut levels and spray cans.

Alberto Silva, known by his alias Sand, is a contemporary Italian artist. Since 1995, Sand's graffiti has left an indelible mark on the urban landscape of Milan, transforming mundane walls and railways into vibrant canvases that challenge both societal norms and artistic conventions. His early works were a bold opposition to authority and the law, a testament to his irreverent spirit that sought to give shape to his creativity in the most unapologetic way.

As the years unfolded, Sand's artistic expression evolved into a personal rebellion, a vandalistic exploration driven by an obsession with the evolution of letters. In his quest to forcefully infuse creativity into the public realm, Sand crafted an alphabet that adhered to his distinct stylistic rules, embodying a wholly unique form of expression.

While continuing to wield the spray can as his weapon of choice, Sand, ever hungry for new challenges, ventured into uncharted territories. Marble, a symbol of life's difficulties and harshness, became a canvas for his transformative touch. In Sand's hands, this unforgiving material metamorphosed into something wonderful, a testament to the transformative power of nature, art, and ion.

Sand's letters, once born from the urgency of the streets, have undergone a remarkable metamorphosis. Extravagant and sinuous, they bear the scars of decades of modification and enrichment. Inspired by the pioneers of graffiti in New York, Sand forged his own path, diverting attention from mere design to the intricacies of aerodynamics. His letters, now embodying a very personal stylistic evolution, stand as a testament to his unyielding commitment to pushing the boundaries of artistic expression.

Alberto Silva, alias Sand, remains a sculptor of paradoxes, seamlessly blending the chaos of the streets with the refined elegance of marble. Through his art, he invites us to witness the alchemy of transformation, where the difficulties of life become a source of wonder when touched by the hands of a true artist.
