An Inquiry into the Good is an artwork composed by a series of 25 paintings. This is Inquiry n.24. The title was inspired by the book (with the same title) written by Japanese philosopher Kitaro Nishida. In my work, I tried to translate Nishida's concept of a 'pure experience' through painting, investigating the pure experience of the subject-object relation, and everything that happens between them. The human figures depicted in the painting are a pretext to take the viewer's gaze into the in-between space of this relation, a space populated by forces more than by people. In order to make all these forces become visible, I tried to carefully use the accidental elements emerging during the phase of chromatic preparation, following them with clear-cut brush strokes that captured the bodies while making them flow into the pictorial space. The choice of acrylic as a technique was dictated by the necessity to use a medium that could be almost instantaneous in its application and that could be worked by successive 'strata' after its drying, in a way that allowed the previous phases to be preserved and influence the following ones. The expressionist style of the painting is a direct consequence of this technique.

I live and work in Naples. Since my first painting on canvas in 1984, I have been using different techniques such as drawing, etching, oil painting and potter sculpture, trying to enrich their expressive potentialities and to obtain unusual, unexpected results. For me, the image is not an object but a 'process': what really counts is not its content but its chaotic energy, captured and ready to explode. It is this energy that prevents images from lasting, and that mixes them up with a continuous detonation, combustion, dissolution. Extreme particles, flashing images. My works are present in numerous public and private collections, such as the Fendi Collection in Rome and the Palace of the Provincial Administration of Salerno.
