NICOLA VILLA

Nicola Villa (b. 1976, Lecco, Italy) lives and works in Genoa. His paintings and collages are born from the observation of the urban context and the people who inhabit it. Using watercolors, inks, pencils, and a variety of materials, he portrays faces and gestures captured in everyday life, suspended between narration and documentation. His figures, devoid of a defined identity, become symbols of a collective reality in constant motion, transforming metropolitan landscapes into visual poetry.
