Federico Pestilli

Italian artist Federico Pestilli’s series ‘Nature Morte’ sheds light on the global environmental crisis threatening life on earth and jeopardising the inherent beauty of the natural kingdom.

 Serving as a metaphor for humanity’s fragile connection to nature, this series features powerful images of flowers wrapped in plastic - these seem to struggle for survival against a backdrop of saturated blue skies.

 ‘Nature Morte’ is the ultimate still life: while utterly vivid at first glance, each work is an imperative reminder of the incessant destruction of our environment.
