Description

Title: THE Pietà today...in my opinion. Technique: oil and acrylic on round canvas. Dimensions: diameter 30 cm
​The Central Scene: Human Sacrifice
​The work stands out against a pitch-black background, a cosmic void that erases time and space to focus attention on the human drama. At the center, the composition echoes the classic pyramidal structure: a Mother (the Madonna) holds the lifeless body of her Son.
​However, the sacred gives way to the profane and denunciation. At the feet of the figures, almost as if breaking the illusion of the biblical scene, lies a bloody syringe. This detail transforms Christ into a universal symbol of contemporary sacrifice, representing—in the artist's vision—the victims of adverse reactions to vaccines. The Virgin's suffering thus becomes the pain of a humanity mourning its children lost in the name of a medical choice.
​The Symbolic Contrast: Innocence vs. Power
​On the right of the tondo, the narrative shifts to the future and childhood:
• ​The Puttini: Two little angels, symbols of purity and innocence, appear crouched and visibly terrified.
• ​The Green Dragon: A monstrous figure embodying danger, brute force, or a dark and threatening power.
• ​The Giant Syringe: Next to the dragon, a disproportionately large syringe looms, symbolizing the oppression of mandatory vaccinations for children, perceived as an overwhelming and monstrous threat.
