About The Artwork

Starting from an azure-green water-like background, a discontinuous layer of pink has been applied, later dabbed using a large brush on tissue paper, in order to shape some folds on. Unwrapping the paper, immediately started a "theme": the azure traces left on canvas, vaguely recalled river water paths, just like aerial view. Right from the top, pink started shaping wavy and light stripes, on which some tiny continuous drawings have been applied, from left to right. So it proceeded alike down the bottom, until the end. This work's been of large creativity to me, because every time I started painting a path, it was as if it were a brand new one: graphically speaking, it was different from the one painted before; the same going for the chromatic level, because I simply had to care about giving concurrent color contrasts. The final result came out per se, as if the daily effort had reached the synthesis automatically. The artwork as finished gives the idea of a parchment applied on water, just like in ancient maps.

About Me: I started studying Art in the very first seventies. That time was full of ideological ferments: first of all, I tried to plan a continuous and lasting path inside myself, aiming to examine the best opportunities to establish a lifestyle that would eventually let me the chance to coherently live with myself, my own person, and to see things from different points of view, taking me right over the things, where it’s possible “ to get some air… to breathe “. This concept directly relates to the words of a close friend of mine from Cefalu’, that visiting one of my solo exhibitions held at Osterio Magno defined my works exactly like “ airy “. When I have finished with my workday, I usually make step-by-step decisions on what should be the best way to proceed with details, trying to remember, at least sometimes, to get a distant view of the painting, in order to gain a wide-ranging vision of the whole. Luckily and often, I’m pretty much satisfied of what I see in front of me, so I may decide to step further, putting close tones and balancing shapes. This process gives me the chance to set up my own way to make and to intend Art itself, which also coincides with my way to live, becoming an all-in-one. The interest in drawing, almost inborn, is the actual motivation that led me to start my Art Studies path. When in High-School, my allure in drawing increased day after day, also thanks to figure drawing, still-life painting and drapery representations, made exclusively through hand-free pencil; I also found myself caught by sketch drawing, where the ideas could met animation. My main choice, was the one to sign-up for the lab of Metal Art, which ended up in receiving my triennial Diploma of “ Maestro d’Arte “. In this class, what I found particularly interesting was the proper technique of glazing on red copper, that basically introduced me towards the proper world of colors, as well the painting itself. This way, drawings suddenly turned into watercolors, and pencils, inks and tempera shortly followed. It seemed like pretty much everything was leading me to the painting reality, thanks to a solid and prior base in drawing. The very first creations, consisted in placing eastern foulards (that I used to collect, from time to time) as models, trying to express them in a pictorial way. Right from this, I made the choice to get going with flat colors and plain compositions, showing central subjects next to never.
