Appreciation towards Peeta for providing the following description:

目前生活在威尼斯的艺术家Peeta将字母绘出立体的雕塑感。他打破以往所有的风格，超越单纯的语义，进入城市街道中，让你我的眼睛发现。那独特的视觉节奏，那立体的体块交接，全因了解并尊重光与阴影的规律。此外，基于对几何形体和比例的研究，这些美丽的作品十分容易被人们接受。这样的创作不仅仅基于对技巧的追求，也探寻深层的精神内涵，作品即品行的体现。艺术家也在创作中逐渐的深入了解自己。

Peeta said :”In my work, I endeavour to realize the sculptural quality of individual letters, namely the ones that spell out my own moniker Peeta. I break them from their generic typographical form, stylizing them with shape and volume beyond its mere semantic function. Thus my own lettering is brought into the fluidity of the urban, where words are continuously ruptured from their own histories, readapted into idiom and gestures learned off the street. The final result derived from the fusion between traditional lettering and three dimensional style has ended up in giving life to a unique kind of visual rhythm, created by the intersecting lines between sections of conic, cylindrical and twisting surfaces. The role of sculpture comes to be essential for this purpose. It represents for me a direct contact with three-dimensionality in order to understand the rules of light and shadows and to reproduce them. ”

“In my most recent works, my aesthetic research is merged with more personal and even intimate contents linked to spirituality, the study of Sacred Geometry and proportion.
Despite the depth of research into technical and formal perfection, the materialness of three-dimensional painting hides a deeply spiritual side. Shades of colour and perceptive tricks are essentially the means to a progressive disclosure of my own personality. They are an implicit intermediary of a precise message — of my will to understand myself and subsequently to describe my ego. The choice to represent and reiterate my own name is already an attempt to paint a self-portrait. My works are aimed at revealing the deceptiveness of human perception, the fallacy of narrow and fixed points of view through visual tricks which, proceeding from the attempt to confer a three-dimensional semblance on a pictorial representation, ultimately reveal their will to deceive. “– Peeta
