Do not expect to change man but try to make him aware
Contemporary painting, while echoing an
ancient method, still remains an effective channel of
communication, alternative to media, provided it’s subjected
to a conceptual revision.
Must be reconsidered not the way to do paintings, but the
way to understand them.
Do not expect to limit the search to an unlikely and
indeterminable aesthetic beauty, but conceive the art works
as generators of a language that knows how to talk about our
existence problems, even from a particular point of view.
Do not express outrage and anguish, but try to awake
awareness to counteract the terrible effects of an economy
based on short-term profit and a culture that wants to
simplify everything.
In order to prevent the rising of sinister characters who
flock the populisms, using the despair and anger to create
the need for a charlatan leader, it's necessary not remain
passive to the weakening of democratic principles.
Only the assumption of a strong individual responsibility
may open a perspective of collective and shared growth,
avoiding to remain prisoners of a hostile fate, oppressive,
packed by few others: but ask yourself how to live better
and how to do.
The space of our mind is full by images, thoughts and
experiences, structured and exchanged in the lived time,
that provide us a vision (likely) of the awareness, that
allows to adapt us to the environment in ways not genetic.
Operate on the look, influencing, contaminating and
disorienting it to provide dynamism to the process of
interpretation could change the linearity of perception,
filling it of pitfalls and doubts, leading the perception to
confront with those uncertainties and those shadows that
govern our life. And allow, then, the viewer to have another
and desirable awareness, feel it near, as the next, just
"around the corner", where you can free out from numbness,
from the confusion and away from the oppressive gloom that
hangs our time.
Analog diagram of how I conceive my
art works to provide a contribution to the idea of change
The incident
ray is the title that should influence the mental act of
interpretation.
The rotating
prism is the framework "tied". An object that evokes
feeling and formal rigor, precision and indeterminateness:
ambiguity but not vagueness.
The spectrum
is the multiplicity aspects of reality seen through a
hybridized look.
Rethinking the action of seeing through the use of the node that
competes effectiveness narrative, it can excite the imagination,
so that the ideas can reach conceptualizations previously
unthinkable, giving new knowledge on the most rational way to
understand things.
The real object (the artwork) and the object represented by the
title, although they do not have semantic relationship between
them, they constitute a combination able to produce deliberately
confusion and disorientation, in order to feel continuously from
certain to the unsafe, from tangible to the intangible.
A challenge to the intelligence that have to work on assumptions
that lead to conflicting results, feel the need to seek a
congruence, find a common way for understand.
A path along where many thoughts crowd and blend, in the
knowledge or presumption of being a constituent part of the
artwork.
If the observer gets involved and participates in the proposed "conceptual
game", he can discover how these thoughts are interconnected
till to the resonance.
Will be so finally possible, scanning the visible to get also
the invisible, to melt the controllable and the imponderable in
a never-ending inexhaustible process, and arrive to a universe
configured by imagination and reasoning: a new objectivity,
another awareness. |
