Mangiaverde

Mangiaverde is a surreal character who lives in my studio. Instead of a stomach, he has a glass container filled with green liquid; in the background, a refrigerator stained with green and, on the floor, a few scattered bottles.

He was born from an absence: one day I found myself without green oil paint. From there I imagined this character who wanders the studio at night, feeding on the colour green, filling his belly with it. The perfect way to blame someone else.
