Untitled. Renewal of Tsukiji District Painting

In the making of the painting I take a lot of photos on film and digital. The images are selected, selected again, edited and a small part of them painted, I prefer keeping a sort of photographic atlas because I never know what will be useful in representing a certain idea. Editing has the role of creating a cinematic image with a certain state and ambiance. The intent is to search for an archetypal structure that has a strong presence to create an initial understanding that can later be studied more. This archetype has the role of bringing strong emotion to the paintings. My architectural background is very present in my works, being a visibile study of human beings in relationship to space and architecture, this appears as well in urban settings as in rural settings. The goal is to see the impact of new and old structures, in the same frame or in a separate frame. I see the paintings as being a movie where each one is a representative frame.
