Serse Roma's graphite water drawings exhibited at Jumeirah Capri Palace

exhibition · 2026-04-26

Artist Serse Roma (born 1952 in San Polo di Piave, based in Trieste) presented his graphite drawings of water at the Jumeirah Capri Palace in a two-day event on September 15-16, 2024. The event was organized in partnership with Galleria Continua, which has locations in San Gimignano, Rome, Paris, São Paulo, Havana, and Beijing. The program included talks, drawing workshops, tastings at local restaurants, and Kneipp treatments at the Capri Medical Spa. Serse, who originally trained as an engineer, abandoned color to work exclusively in graphite, seeking purity and essence. His technique involves erasures to achieve a primordial state, influenced by reductionist astrophysics. The hotel's The White Museum collection includes works by De Chirico, Haring, Pomodoro, and Plessi.
