Boogie Nights Series
The ‘Boogie Nights’ series is a study of portraits akin to the deeply psychologically rooted works of Francis Bacon, a prominent figure in 20th-century art, known for his intense and distorted portrait studies. This work delves into the human psyche, capturing raw and emotional experiences. Piacente’s use of bold colours, abstract forms, and unsettling imagery creates a visceral impact, inviting viewers to engage with the complexity of human existence. Exploring this avant-garde body of work involves a departure from traditional norms. These portraits convey a range of emotions and tumultuous aspects of existence.
