About the Item
"Dans sa coquille" (In Its Shell) by Antony Squizzato is a stunning abstract artwork featuring a stylized snail rendered in a vibrant palette of yellow, blue, brown, and black against a neutral background. This contemporary geometric composition measures 60 cm × 60 cm (23.6 in × 23.6 in). Created using acrylic on canvas, the painting combines fluid organic shapes with precise geometric elements, showcasing Squizzato's distinctive artistic style and playful approach to form and color.
"Dans sa coquille" (In Its Shell) exemplifies Antony Squizzato's masterful ability to blend geometric abstraction with organic forms. The artwork presents a stylized snail through a sophisticated arrangement of curved shapes and bold color blocks that seem to fold and unfold within the confined space.
The color palette is particularly noteworthy, with warm yellows and browns contrasting against cool blues and teals, all unified by dramatic black elements that define the composition's structure, creating a balanced visual harmony that draws the viewer into its rhythmic arrangement. The flowing, interlocking shapes suggest movement and transformation, while simultaneously maintaining a sense of containment within the square format—mirroring the concept of life within a protective shell.
Squizzato's work draws from various art historical movements, particularly mid-century modernism and geometric abstraction. There are echoes of Kandinsky's musical compositions and Miró's playful biomorphic forms, yet Squizzato establishes his own distinctive visual language. The harmonious balance between rigid geometry and flowing curves creates a rhythmic visual experience reminiscent of jazz improvisation.
The stylized snail motif could be interpreted as a meditation on protection, home, and the gradual journey of artistic development—carrying one's influences while slowly but steadily forging a unique path. The composition invites viewers to follow its spiral movement inward, creating an intimate viewing experience that rewards prolonged engagement.
Through "Dans sa coquille", Squizzato demonstrates his capacity to transform a simple natural form into a complex visual statement that balances playfulness with sophisticated formal considerations.
