Biografia
my work is essentially developed from exploring the stroke, the drawing, more than the blotch, the colour. the quest for the essential in an insistent, physical, movement. then paint over charcoal, a secondary matter, layer by layer, overlapping, sometimes opaque, sometimes transparent, that hides it, that reveals it. the endless quest for the minimum and for all, in an impulse. a line.
this is how art progresses, taking all its vestiges, taking with it all the traces that make it up.
more than a mere discovered place, it is a work in progress. that is why my work drifts, returns, does not repeat or mince. it is a walk, a forever young body that glides and feels its way, gets lost, is sometimes blind, and sometimes clairvoyant.
my works of art are not always objects of easy empathy; nor should they be. they are never smooth planes, nor dermal exercises. often there is thickness that the paint and stroke silence. that is why I write about them; to better construct, understand and open them.
often, the written word is their starting point. that is where they begin.
