“Creating schools of anchovies was automatic for me. While working on it, I discovered that the Ligurians feel like anchovies; They only want those!!”
Starting from gyotaku icongraphy with concise clean lines, Elena mastered the dynamic beauty of the anchovy in its natural world.
The anchovies chase each other in swirls that seem catapulting the viewer into the sea as if you can feel the fish slipping through your fingers.
« With Elena's impeccable placement of shadows and curves, her compositions are unbelievably three dimensional, distorting the static placement of classic Gyotaku. «
This extreme versatility allows for a great variety of different compositions.
Forming a “puzzle" like scheme, each unique placement of every anchovy seem to dance in the shadows of those above it, sparking a sense of music or dance.
Without a doubt, Elena has made the Gyotaku Levante brand a sensation Ligurian worldwide amongst the narrow niche of Gyotaku and exported all over the world.
Tutti i Gyotaku di acciughe sono già venduti.
