Stratifications.

A mighty section of a wall reveals the internal anatomy of secular architecture. Blocks of gray stone on the left and terracotta bricks on the right frame a heart of chipped mortar and shapeless rocks. A dense shadow descends vertically, cutting the composition with dramatic force.

The oil color explores the brutality and resistance of bare matter. The brush moves among the harshness of the lime, the compactness of the brickwork, and the mineral coldness. The scene acquires a powerful and sculptural three-dimensionality.

The artwork celebrates time as a relentless sculptor. The ruin becomes a proud and vital monument. It is a rugged image, firmly anchored to the foundations of the world.
