Luminanze - Luminances
--
My Luminances are made with paintbrushes and diluent on polystyrene. While melting polystyrene, diluent ploughs it at different depths according to the pressure of the brush-strokes. Paintbrushes, corrosive medium, corruptive supports, gestural expressiveness, writings affected by strokes’ intensity and swiftness and by the varying pronunciation of gestures. The outcomes are plastic, *too*. I work on the surface, moving it back: the approach is frontal and avails itself of Painter’s tools and cast of mind. I abandoned colour but not its motives. Luminances hold just tonal relations, expressed by a language of signs only, consisting of shadows and lights. I tell Painting through a mute painting, deprived of pigments, and traducing in space the lines concealed in substance. Through Luminances I want to show that Painting’s Principles are unrelated with techniques and overcome them. I desaturate the environment of visual events’ excess, highlighting the mental course of the lines, which modulate themselves from one to another with antimateric cadences, without any colour inference and in chase for light.
