Through a series of meticulous still-life paintings, he catalogues the diverse forms of the humble paintbrush. From frayed, handmade bristles to precise, factory-issued tools, Rocci elevates these overlooked objects of utility into subjects of deep visual interest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003eThe original pieces were rendered on rough cotton-linen, utilising a highly specific mixture of pencil, oil, and casein infused with raw pigments milled at a historic windmill in Zaandam. This deliberate, slow medium perfectly mirrors his philosophy of pausing to appreciate the craftsmanship of everyday items.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003eAs a physical object, the book is exceptionally produced to match the artistry of its contents. Its unusual, elongated 150 x 300 mm format is specifically designed to accommodate the shape of its subjects.

A graduate of the Gerrit Rietveld Academie, he founded the independent print studio Terry Bleu as a space to explore material culture and collaborative publishing. Rocci’s personal practice is deeply rooted in observation; he actively collects functional, mundane items—from textiles to hardware—using painting as a medium to highlight the raw, understated elegance of the things we constantly use but rarely truly look at.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hugo Rocci","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62736180609183,"sku":"HR-Brushes","price":300.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0276\/8411\/files\/Brushesbook_cover.jpg?v=1774347095","url":"https:\/\/oddoneout.hk\/products\/brushes-by-hugo-rocci","provider":"ODD ONE OUT","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
