ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This series of works addresses the concept of "shadow" in Carl Gustav Jung's thought according to which every man hides lights and shadows within himself and it is the latter that constitute the set of unacceptable things that each of us tries to hide from others others. Light and shadow are therefore considered as metaphors for good and evil. Acceptance of the latter helps man to circumscribe and give greater shape to himself. in these works, the artist therefore tries to represent, through the use of three-dimensional forms with his own shadow projections, this continuous contrast between good and evil that each of us hides deep inside us. the work is created on a wooden support on which a carved wooden block covered in aluminum has been assembled. Through a lamp the artist projected the shadow of the sculpture onto the panel. This shadow was then painted. in this case the shadows are multiple, as are the aspects of our being.

Born in 1980, Lele De Bonis lives and works as a set designer for several companies in the theater, cinema, amusement parks and outdoor scenography sectors. At the same time he has developed a personal artistic path focused on the concept of recovery and assembly, through which he represents what strikes him most in real life. The human being is the center of his works and he usually represents it in a cynical and grotesque key, without ever condemning it. Wood and aluminum are the materials he uses the most. Beyond the message, their constructive juxtaposition allows him to play and experience infinite alchemical relationships between hot and cold materials. Starting from the concept of “ready made”, through his assemblages, Lele is constantly searching for an aesthetic dialogue aimed at creating a material and chromatic balance between the different materials within a composition. His works are a continuous alternation between explicit references to the current historical context and a more abstract, introspective research.
