«An accident at work made it impossible for Vetere to sculpt for a long time. He began to experiment with sand, oils and colours until he found a mixture that would adhere to almost any surface and developed his own fresco technique. The frescoes combine painting with a sculptural moment and almost assume the character of reliefs with a colourful dimension of depth. The frescoes are the central focus of his entire œuvre.» from: Link.
