LIFE

SERIES

LIFE unfolds as an abstract narrative of existence.

 

At the heart of each composition lies a recurring element that echoes the Tree of Life—an archetype of interconnection and continuity. Its fluid, branching form evokes at once a river delta, a network of roots, blood vessels, or neural synapses.

LIFE is a visual map that seeks to reveal the deep structures of living through a minimal language. Each piece is conceived as a modular structure, where multiple canvases combine to construct a coherent narrative. Each module retains its own visual and conceptual autonomy, just like life experiences that—though fragmented—contribute to the shaping of our identity. The segmentation of the surfaces evokes the discontinuity of memory, yet also reveals how it is precisely the overall vision that gives meaning and relevance to each individual part.

 

The pictorial matter is dense, imperfect, and gestural. Acrylics and gesso are applied in layers, spread with swift and instinctive movements, generating vivid textures, reliefs, and irregularities that reflect the uneven fabric of lived experience. The palette consists of intense, contrasting tones, chosen for their sensory impact and evocative power, creating a visual language that is immediate, almost corporeal.

 

This body of work resonates with the chromatic spirituality of Mark Rothko, the organic structures of Terry Winters, the hypnotic and symbolic universe of Yayoi Kusama, and the experimental, tactile, and free approach of Gaetano Pesce.

 

LIFE is an invitation to recognize in pain, love, failure, and joy the essential fragments of our becoming. It is a reflection on trust in the process, and the hope that every step—even the most uncertain—will find its place in the greater design of our path.
