The Artwork

Return.

The old terracotta tiles overlap in an undulating, harmonious flow. The surface blossoms beneath a blanket of yellow and green lichens. The grazing light sculpts the curves and carves depth into the joints, exalting the porous grain of the fired clay.

Painting merges with nature in this silent vegetal colonization. The brushstrokes recreate the moisture in the air, transforming architecture into an organic landscape. Before this perfect illusion, one breathes the quietude of the isolated countryside.

The painting celebrates the encounter between human craft and time. The crumbling terracotta acquires an unexpected purity. It is a reassuring vision, capable of conveying a profound sense of acceptance and peace.

The artist's voice

"Nature always embraces forgotten works. Moss envelops the clay to gently return it to the earth."
