Francesco Di Tillo

My approach of the art invites to refect on the forms of knowledge by proposing subjects paradoxical,
incomprehensible, or even catastrophic, causing an perpetual oscillation between the visible and the
imaginary, disturbing and at the same time becoming fond to the reactions of the others , to futility and
irrationality of things, contexts, that makes imaginary and that denies the reality although unable to refuse it. Normally my proposals are so on the threshold of the impossible but never appear offside.
I'm interested in the idea that the viewer, the spectator, so "brainwashed" is temporarily free from the cultural roots inevitably constraining and so it can start a process of impartial knowledge.
