The absolute protagonist of Ugo Salerno's works is paper, a material that accompanied the artist during his daily work.

Paper, crumpled, twisted, glued, painted, becomes a primordial magma, defined as a "comp artist. "The unique prototype then means through "machine reproduction" the final work, a large black and white image printed on canvas.

The artist leaves the field free to the imagination of the viewer, and it is thus that freely interpretable figures suddenly appear in his works.It is a contemporary and profound dialogue with the art of our time.
