Twilight - Oil and gold leaf on canvas - 60x80 - 2015
La nascita di "Penombra" avviene nel periodo iniziale della frantumazione della forma,un dileguarsi della figura in tutta la sua matericità. Presente alla terra con dense spatolate di colore ,un corpo fisico somigliante alla corteccia di un albero stratificato e forte del suo tempo. Nasce dalla terra per innalzarsi a elevazione nella metamorfosi del proprio essere,chiuso in una forma fetale in attesa di rinascita.L'oro e il blu reale rappresentano la spiritualità e la capacità per l'uomo di innalzarsi a pensieri e sentimenti nobili. Tecnicamente è lavorato per stratificazione con applicazione di foglia d'oro sintetica e gommalacca e colore ad olio fino a raggiungere effetto materico e contrasti luce-ombra.
The birth of "Twilight"occurs in the initial period of the shattering of form,a disenchantment of the figure in all its materiality. Present to the ground with dense spatulate of color, a physical body resembling the bark of a layered and strong tree of his time. Born from the earth to rise to elevation in the metamorphosis of its own being,closed in a fetal form awaiting rebirth. Gold and real blue represent the spirituality and ability of man to rise to noble thoughts and feelings.Technically it has been worker for stratification with application of synthetic gold leaf and shellac and oil color to reach material effect and light-shadow contrasts.
