Le Figlie di O
"As for that to which you tend, it is something great, the Mighty, the near God, the imperturbability." Seneca, De tranquillitate minds The O Daughters, fantastic figures generated on the zero degree on the border between land and sky, icy creatures framed by baroque ruffs not fear the eyes of the beholder. They belong to an "other" world where good and evil are cast as the substance of things. Themselves, similar to mythological creatures such as nymphs embody the ancient nature and protect: alseid the woods, Anthuse for flowers, Nereids for the seas, Idriadi for sources. The artist has made them blossom on his hands in a whirling dance ritual that wraps itself relentlessly in the beautiful ink drawings to slow down in a precise painting "Renaissance" full of symbolism and codes often indecipherable. The O daughters have chosen to appear in small windows that give this world to bring us the fire of Prometheus: ataraxia. A sense of completeness, of serenity from which, however, we must be ready to escape when the spirit demands it: "You can not reach the sublime and lofty heights those who are always in control of himself: it is necessary to move away from the usual road and has soared to up and bite the brakes and drag his charioteer and lead him to where he alone would have been afraid to go up "(Seneca) These fascinating creatures, placed in the vanishing point on which Paolo Uccello experienced its prospective battles and Botticelli the softness plastics, arise on the horizon of the world otherwise we revere and the world that we live and who we are. To us the decision to be taken with dismay or stay still for a moment in contemplation, kidnapped by looks that promise not to promise. Efisio Carbone
