ARTIST

An exhibition of drawings by Marcello D'Amico, inspired by the Aeolian Islands with rich bright colours depicting their volcanic origins, landscapes, moods and mystery.

" My love affair with art started even before I went to primary school in Malfa, a small village in the Island of Salina, one of seven islands forming the Aeolian Archipelago in the Tyrrhenian Sea, a few miles from the Northern coast of Sicily.

When I immigrated to Australia at the age of 14 I promised myself that one day I would return to the islands as an artist, so that I could pay proper homage to my native land." Marcello D'Amico

This latest exhibition represents a very important stage of my life.

The "Sensuous Journey", started in year 2000, concludes and I begin a new artistic venture with "New Horizons- Prologue".

Some of these drawings will be used to illustrate a book of poetry, to be published later on this year, by the Canadian poet Rachel Rivi.
