"Materia" (1912) is a seminal painting by Italian artist Umberto Boccioni (1882–1916), a leading figure in the Futurist movement that sought to capture the dynamism and energy of the modern world. This artwork stands as a pivotal piece in Boccioni's oeuvre, embodying the transition from Divisionism—a technique characterized by the separation of colors into individual dots or patches that interact visually—to a more dynamic, fluid representation of space and form, which became a hallmark of Futurism.

The painting, measuring 226 x 150 cm, is housed in the Museo del Novecento in Milan, Italy. "Materia" showcases Boccioni's exploration of the relationship between the physical body and the space surrounding it, emphasizing movement and the interpenetration of objects and environment, which were key concepts in Futurist aesthetics. The work depicts a mother and child, but rather than focusing on their individual forms, Boccioni integrates them with swirling, energetic patterns that suggest the flux of life and the interconnectedness of all matter.

In creating "Materia," Boccioni was influenced by contemporary scientific and philosophical ideas, particularly those concerning the nature of matter and the universe. He sought to transcend the traditional representation of the human figure and instead aimed to capture the essence of material and spiritual existence through a dynamic synthesis of forms. This approach reflects the Futurists' fascination with speed, technology, and the forces of the modern age, as well as their desire to revolutionize art by incorporating the perception of time and the fourth dimension.

"Materia" is not only a testament to Boccioni's innovative spirit but also a reflection of the broader ambitions of the Futurist movement to break away from the past and embrace the transformative power of modernity. Through this work, Boccioni challenges viewers to see beyond the surface of the canvas and consider the deeper, fluid connections that define our reality.
