ri-tratto n°8
Giuliana Silvestrini's Ri-Stretches tell of a process, drawing from the depths of memory, which instantly releases repeated gestures, represented by multiple and fluid creases, lacquered rubber lacquers, solid wax stratifications, and knife removals. A constant search for compositional equilibrium always tended to represent the sedimented image (Guido D'Angelo, 2017)
Impronte I e II
Two bricks side by side show on the surface of concrete and sand traces, imprints of disguised dresses covered with bitumen. A recovery of the lost presence, through abandoned dresses, a declared impossibility to accept separation. The traces left by dresses, understood as skin, represent the silent micro narratives of different identities; a reason already faced in the work, "I can not help it" by 2015 at the Scuderie Aldobrandini in Frascati (RM).
A photomontage dedicated to time, celebrates for continuity the ancient introspective practice of the self-portrait of the artist seeking his identity through the encounter, almost a fusion, with the generating mother. At the same time, it shows a critical reflection on the conditioning of family relationships and on the consequences of the development of one's own identity. Who am I? What is my own essence? (Guido D'Angelo, 2017)
Ri-tratto 5
The "Ri-traits" are of wood treated with lacquered rubber that gives a light effect, the color is given by burrs with colors ranging from the rosaries of mahogany and rosewood to the brown of the nut, to the hot and deep blacks of the " ebony. Observe a face and meditate on it with painting as a filter is crossing it, following the emotional wave that leads us back into the other.
