Raffaele Ciotola ''La Gioconda'', created in 2022, offers an innovative reimagining of Leonardo da Vinci iconic painting. Using his unique Finger Art technique, Ciotola revisits the image of the Mona Lisa with a deceptively simple gesture: the use of a single finger. This gesture does not aim to reproduce the famous smile, but instead seeks to capture the essence of the subject’s self, exploring a deep psychological layer that resonates with contemporary themes. The minimalistic technique reveals new emotional and chromatic nuances, offering a fresh and powerful interpretation of the original. With this version, Ciotola not only pays tribute to Leonardo’s masterpiece but also transforms the concept of identity and self-representation, positioning his work as a reflection on modernity and the challenges of our time.
