Trittico per una Crocefissione
Installation, Human figure, Various materials, 290x400x250cm
The installation arrangement emphasises an aspect which is essential for the artist, namely the dramatic dimension of the figurative system.
Whereas the convex and wrapping metre represents a very distinctive feature, less evident is the link between chromatic areas, which turn into flesh and blood, pain and passion, thus echoing the symbolism evoked by the 17th century. Add to this the wrong-footing effect of the acid colour, which acts both as a natural short circuit of our time and as an architectural counterbalance including the eternal dynamism of flow. And then there are the “three pilgrims”, sitting on a hassock, completing the short circuit between contemporary age and memory: there they are, silent and wrong-footing, privileged observers on the way of a tragic dimension which is somehow resembling the comical.
