ALLORA
ALLORA is an original artwork framed in a Tasmanian oak frame.
Inspired by the linguistic cadence of Italian street life, this piece captures one of Italy's most ubiquitous conversational markers. Meaning "so" or "well then", ALLORA punctuates nearly every Italian dialogue, serving as both pause and propulsion in conversation.
Rendered in soft, muted tones against a textured ground, the word emerges like an overheard fragment from a café conversation or market exchange. The weathered surface treatment reflects the worn familiarity of this everyday expression, simultaneously casual and essential, like the Italian approach to language itself.
Part of a series exploring favorite phrases encountered while living in Milan, each work isolates these linguistic moments that become the soundtrack to daily Italian life. The subtle colour palette allows the word's meaning to resonate beyond its visual presence, inviting viewers to hear the inflection and feel the gestural weight these simple words carry in Italian culture.
100 X 130 × 5.5 cm / 39 × 51 × 2“
Signed, titled and dated to rear.
