CONTEMPORARY ART REVIEW
The starting point of painting is always a realistic theme , which in its literal form appears only at the planning and sometimes underpainting stages and later on becomes blurred to make its interpretation ambiguous . In the cycles “ Travelling through unconscious ” and “ Lost horizon ” the audience is invited to view a landscape . To me , this is an almost literal act of entering the painting , a subconscious journey into the space that the viewer is invited to make . Everyone will experience it as a journey in a totally different scenery accompanied by individual emotions and associations . was not so spare in the past . I used to create very intensive paintings often dominated by reds , with a greatly varied colour palette and choice of themes .
The cycle “ Lost horizon ” is very oniric , suffused with emptiness in the sense of literal representation , but at the same time abundant in terms of its interpretation . In this way I build an image bordering between reality and abstraction , I give the viewer the possibility to interpret the presented theme , which in this case is a landscape , but I do not make it explicit . The emptiness permeating the image is at the same time the full message I intended to convey .
