ABOUT THE ARTWORK

"Jolly" is an abstract representation of a word. The word evokes a particular moment for me: I heard it long ago said by a lady who was telling a group of friends that she was a "Joker"-at home and at work: because of her ability to be decisive and useful for any task. I glimpsed in this person the "repressed will to escape" from a situation that had subdued her over time. Most likely I assume that no one was helping her, thus living in a whirlwind by fretting over others. However, all this did not weigh on her as she had become accustomed to a sense of continuous and free sacrifice in any situation. Sometimes wild cards are strong figures but living in a loop of usefulness. Italiano "Jolly" è una rappresentazione astratta di una parola. La parola mi evoca un momento particolare: sentii tempo fa dirla da una signora che stava raccontando ad un gruppo di amici di essere un "Jolly" - a casa e nel lavoro: per la sua capacità di essere risolutiva ed utile per qualunque compito. Ho intravisto in questa persona la "volontà repressa di evadere" da una situazione che con il tempo l'aveva sottomessa. Molto probabilmente presumo che nessuno l'aiutasse, vivendo così in un vortice affanandosi per il prossimo. Tuttavia tutto ciò non le pesava poiché si era abituata ad un senso del sacrificio continuo e gratuito in qualunque situazione. Tal volta i jolly sono figure forti ma che vivono in un loop di utilità.

Mattia Paoli (1991) is an artist from Florence, and has been active in the artistic field for a very long time. Painting has always been an essential element of his life: he has been painting since he was a kid, mixing a wide range of artistic techniques and experimenting with creativity. Graduated in Design with honors from the University of Florence, he participates in international competitions and his artworks are appreciated and purchased by collectors around the world. His artistic research explores new creative approaches through 3D design and investigates the visual relationship between real objects and their representation. His works, with their dynamic and material surfaces, express a feeling of man's transitory existence. This caducity is the main subject of his photographic research, in which he combines analogical and digital techniques. These symbolically represent the twofold and the contraposition between positive and negative pole, which are intrinsic elements of the human essence.
