Trastulli-Love Teaser
My practice is the result of an introspective research as well as an elaboration of an emotional mourning: the painting as a means of therapy, to bring forth and internal vision into an external reality.
The forced interruption of a pregnancy at a young age was the event that shook my emotions and that led me to reflect on the precariousness of happiness, love and life.
For many years I lived based on my rationality, isolating my heart, thinking that individualism was the best way to achieve my stability, my balance between reason and emotion. I was wrong! It was a way for me to protect myself from further suffering.
The sharing of emotions and ideas, and the interaction between the individual and his environment is critical to the achievement of harmony and permanent well-being.
Painting has played a major role in my healing process.
In my paintings I have chosen the "pattern" of the spiral due to its the many psychological and cultural references related to it.
The spirals have always been inspiring artists and intellectuals, but also scientists.
A symbol that represents ambivalent principles: the abstraction of energy type and the mathematical and rational notions.
In nature you can find them in a Nautilus shell or in a microscopic structures, such as double-stranded DNA and in those vast as the galaxy.
As in a process of dialectic, infinity of creation and destruction, interact as opposite principles to achieve a harmonious truth.
Intense as a dance of opposing forces, balanced and endless as light and darkness, life and death, male and female, good and evil, emotion and rationality.
In this perpetual becoming, the spirals in my paintings take various forms, from hearts, flowers, bubble, eyes and to tangle of contrasting colors and depict the search of a cathartic healing and inner balance.
