Surfaces XVIII Painting

Surfaces XVIII 2016, mixed media on paper, 30x21cm./11.8x8.26 in. This piece is part of the solo exhibition ‘Surfaces’. It’s done on watercolor paper, is framed in black wood on the sides and glass in front. Below a brief explanation of the meaning of this body of work. To rip apart surfaces and reunite them again in a single piece, this is the journey done by Rosemary Salkin Sbiroli in her solo exhibit ‘Surfaces’. Rosemary Salkin Sbiroli pursues an intimate path following the suggestions of what’s around her, conscious of the subtle veil that divides representation and abstraction; she brakes down and reassembles elements keeping the suggestion of the original archetype. Prompting us to perceive figures that are at the same time familiar and elusive. A creative choice of the artist that allows her to deepen the exploration of subtle emotions, not yelled, that overlap layer after layer in her works to create a complex emotional syntax. Writes of Rosemary Salkin Sbiroli the critic Romina Guidelli: The work of Rosemary Salkin Sbiroli recalls the Clinamen theory described by Lucrezio in the ‘De rerum natura’, which is the ability that the primal bodies have to deviate from ordinary trajectories to follow new paths. An event that supports an innate but variable oscillation: the miracle of a permanent revolution. This constant moment of genesis generates infinite ‘other nature’, abstract if compared to the known data, but that doesn’t loose perfection in her mutation. Is new creation that participates to the infinite variables of endless forces, choosing Liberty as the main power.
