Come On Up to The House
In this painting, the artist summons a glowing opalescence through a series of activated gradients across a spatially disorienting world.
Vincent Stracquadanio’s paintings are liminal spaces where ghostly forms depart and float through dreamlike miasmas. With imagery that draws from Sicilian folkloric traditions, Etruscan frescos, and Giallo horror films, expressions of grief and yearning permeate Stracquadanio’s work. His rendered spaces flatten or expand with patterns, gestural abstraction, or archetypical forms. There is a purposeful lack of solidity and definition — and yet, the paintings convey a poignant sense of longing.

Vincent Stracquadanio’s paintings are liminal spaces where ghostly forms depart and float through dark foreboding mists, searching for some sense of self or a long-lost better half. Fiery glowing hands reach out from portals and arches to probe this dreamlike miasma, always leaving unsatisfied. Expressions of grief and yearning permeate Stracquadanio’s work via rendered spaces that flatten or expand with patterns, gestural abstraction, or archetypical forms. Drawing his imagery from Sicilian folkloric traditions, Etruscan frescos, and Giallo horror films, Stracquadanio rarely puts moments of solidity in his work, expressing a state of longing and, ultimately, a desire for change.
Vincent Stracquadanio was born in 1989 in Queens, NY, and lives in Brooklyn, NY. He earned his MFA from the Yale University School of Art in New Haven, CT (2017) and his BA from Fordham University in the Bronx, NY (2011).
He has shown his work at Good Naked Gallery in New York City, NY (2022); Far X Wide, New York City, NY (2021); Gallery Perchee in New York City, NY (2021); Hayden Hartnett Project Space in New York City, NY (2021); Resident in Brooklyn, NY (2019); The Hole in New York City, NY (2019); and elsewhere.
