Project Description

The Heart Guitar

This work is the result of a collaboration with artist Federico Trepichio.

Lospennato built the guitar, and Trepichio painted his intricate drawings on it, a cornucopia of textures and pictorial gestures. These motifs, from spontaneous randomness, somehow create a consistent, fantastic landscape.

Specially commissioned by an art collector in the U.S., this instrument is truly one of a kind.
