Talk Is Cheap
2025 · 8 works
Rocco Ritchie is proud to announce ‘Talk is Cheap’, a new exhibition that explores physical practice, discipline, and an engagement with raw material. Bringing together works shaped from marble, wood, canvas, and pure pigments, the exhibition presents a powerful exploration of form, texture, and process.
After a residency in the mountains of Tuscany, Rocco Ritchie and Tony Cassanelli developed their artistic conversation, exploring mediums and materials from clay to wood carving and bronze to marble sculpture.
‘Talk is Cheap’ creates a space where viewers can encounter art in its rawest form. Creating a conversation that goes beyond words.
