The Artwork

Geometries.

A dense weave of triangular modules expands across the canvas. Warm terracotta, ochre, and olive green alternate in a continuous rhythmic play. A ray of intense light illuminates the lower left corner, leaving the rest of the composition in an evocative penumbra.

The mathematical rigor of the forms dialogues with the imperfections of the matter. The oil painting recreates the ripples, the small breakages, and the wear of the antique terracotta. The observer feels the solidity of a floor modeled by time and footsteps.

The artwork unleashes an ordered and reassuring beauty. The technical precision of the artist elevates geometry to a form of pure art. It is a perfect mental space, capable of welcoming silence.

The artist's voice

"Exact forms offer comfort to the human eye. The warmth of the clay softens the severity of the straight line."
