For me to speak of my
"papers," in all honesty, implies an emotional-intellectual
detachment and a change of language, from that of my work to one made of
words, more extraneous, with the disquiet and uneasiness of
misinterpreting content and motivations of my work. But if it can facilitate the interpretation of the work...
The "concept" of
structure-space-light moves within a rational analytical study in which I
tend to reduce the means and modes of operation in a rigorous and
demanding meditation.
The means: paper, or rather a light cardboard
chosen for its softness and docility to touch and for its "candour"
(light) uncontaminated by any external intervention of colour, capable of
evoking emotions of purity, of quiet and clarifying contemplation. On this surface, using a blade, I
trace a cut following geometric lines (projections, planes overturned...);
then delicately, carefully, I make folds which create a subtle relief,
capable of involving space, giving it structure, making it perceptible. The surface vibrates with a
structure-light obtained not with effects of painted chiaroscuro, but with
the incidence of light (grazing) on the support itself, the cut and folded
paper, where I rigorously fight the temptation to enrich the work. The surfaces change, varying
according to the viewpoint and incidence of light; a dialectic spatiality
derives that involves the viewer in a series of dynamic relations,
offering him a creative reappropriation of the surrounding space. My "papers" demand an
unsuperficial, careful and prolonged interpretation; their message is not
readily perceivable and they require a viewer disposed to meditate on
their content, motivations and stimuli.
