It's Worse Than You Think<\/em> \u2014 the title is a statement in itself. Kende uses language as a visual medium: the phrase does not comment on the work, it inhabits it. Mixed media on wood, 160 \u00d7 180 cm, 2009.
\nA vertical format that dominates the wall with a commanding presence. The surface is built up in layers \u2014 like city walls that are constantly being rewritten, layer upon layer, erasure upon erasure. The work carries with it the visual density of an urban language brought indoors: not decoration, not illustration. Presence.
\nAmong the most significant works in the catalogue in terms of their place in the artist\u2019s career. For private collectors, high-end interior designers and architectural firms seeking contemporary Italian art with a documented history within the European calligraffiti and graffiti scene.<\/p>\n
