They have an irresistible tug-of tenderness peculiar and strange melancholy, almost bucolic, the work of homeless urban images that have been characterized, since its inception, the proposals of the two artists Turin.
They say that those who were not born and lived in the suburbs of big cities, hardly accede to the poetic meaning and scope unique to these places that today are known as excluded from the metropolitan center and the periphery of the province.

On the significance of painting in contemporary art, painting and writing duality, relates the work done, one of the youngest of Italian art, a painter narrator of raw emotions and sensations that form an attractive spots magical world and color.
A Khet Pesce likes two things in particular: errors and paper.
Mountains of paper impregnated with these errors to the limit, in which works of art and traditional painting styles are available to the artist waiting to be exploited and recycled.
So an artist like Khet would not exactly be a post-historic artist, but rather lies beyond history in whose work the past and present are contemporaries.
Seeing their work reflects their interest in the works of Baselitz, Basquiat and Twombly, but play the role of a painter refused naive amateur or a savage or neo-expressionist maudit.
In fact, Pesce is spontaneously similar to his work and his person is not very different from the subjects or cartoon represents.
Most surprising is that there is nothing flamboyant or unnatural in what he creates.
