About The Artwork

This work is largely composed of a single shade of indigo, known as the color of the night, mixed with various shades of white. Two main blue-white presences float on the canvas which - one in front of the other - appear just beyond the limits of materiality and concrete representation. These 2 images move between liquid and gaseous states with respect to the figure placed in the foreground, thanks to a less misty and apparently solid brush stroke. The painting seems to suggest that the artist has two eyes, one to look at reality and the other to see hidden things. The reflection on the movements of the psyche out of focus must be able to turn the gaze in its priorities to change the perception of the facts and sometimes get rid of the cages. Questo lavoro è in gran parte composto da un’unica sfumatura di indaco, conosciuto come il colore della notte, mescolato a varie gradazioni di bianco. Sulla tela fluttuano due presenze principali di colore blu-bianco che - uno di fronte all’altra - appaiono appena oltre i limiti della materialità e della rappresentazione concreta. Queste 2 immagini si muovono tra stati liquidi e gassosi rispetto alla figura posta di spalle in primo piano, grazie ad una pennellata meno nebbiosa e apparentemente solida. Il dipinto sembra suggerire che l’artista ha due occhi, uno per guardare la realtà e l’altro per vedere le cose nascoste. La riflessione sui movimenti della psiche fuori fuoco devono poter capovolgere lo sguardo nelle sue priorità per cambiare la percezione dei fatti e talvolta liberarci delle gabbie. Ce travail est en grande partie composé d'une seule nuance d'indigo, connue comme la couleur de la nuit, mélangée à diverses nuances de blanc. Deux principales présences bleu-blanc flottent sur la toile qui, l'une devant l'autre, apparaissent juste au-delà des limites de la matérialité et de la représentation concrète. Ces 2 images se déplacent entre les états liquide et gazeux par rapport à la figure placée au premier plan, grâce à un coup de pinceau moins brumeux et apparemment solide. La peinture semble suggérer que l'artiste a deux yeux, l'un pour regarder la réalité et l'autre pour voir les choses cachées. La réflexion sur les mouvements de la psyché floue doit pouvoir tourner le regard dans ses priorités pour changer la perception des faits et parfois se débarrasser des cages.

My artistic research is closely linked to the vision of the world as a movement permeated by the energy of human fragility. At the core of my work lies the idea of «Corpus-et-Vulnus,» an existential alchemical synthesis that merges the physical and spiritual aspects. Visually, it’s not just about haptic volumes triggered within the device. I move within the unusual space of interstitial zones between painting∞sculpture, influenced by the language of cinema, dance, music, and photography, in order to continually re-signify exhibition spaces and experiment with practices that foster a unique process of relationships. This process can unveil a shared lexicon between artists and participants. Among many other things, I have also abandoned the nail of painting being attached to the wall of a white cube and brought the devices down from the pedestal to the ground amidst the «contemporary cathedrals of vulnerability»: former prisons-asylums-slaughterhouses-hospitals-church-boats… hibernated places in our metropolises where we can discover what lies behind-the-functioning-world. To concretize my artistic vision, I have named the devices “Communicating Artistic Organisms” because they do not have a fixed and concluded form, but are composed of an ever-evolving “Cosmic-Fabric-Weave,” where everything is in a state of change: chemical reactions, fermentations, chromatic alterations, and decay. This name reinforces the idea that art is a process closely linked to life as raw material and involves an active and inclusive interpretative nature between artists and participants, where the entire process of relationships that ensues can reveal connections, affinities, and possible developments. Expanding on the terms of site-specific and site-sensitive devices, I speak of «Site-Coexistence,» which is the attempt to create not a confrontation but a dialogue between multiple existences for a more impactful experience, even if confined to the time and space of the exhibition performance. My personal artistic language has developed through experimentation and inspiration from great masters such as Kiefer, Parmiggiani, Beuys… My artistic design is heavily influenced by the tradition of informal and conceptual art, in which the irreversible and continuous transformation of the «Body-beyond-Matter» is an integral part of an «Nomadic Ethics» and «Aesthetics-of-Convergence» based on the creative mechanisms of Ruins.
