IN_atelier is a physical space, my studio, and a virtual space. This page is where I offer previews of works in progress, seeking a common thread with less recent productions.
The result is a gallery of images, imaginations, conclusions and new reflections arising from unexpected contacts, observations and criticisms.
“Live” activities are also planned.
For insiders, IN_atelier can be a valuable observatory for catching a glimpse of my creative processes and establishing collaborations with me.
For some months now, I have been working on the ‘horizon’, also understood as the ‘visible spectrum’ or, somewhat, the limit of our visible spectrum.
I am experimenting with black light and getting help from physics.
The images in the gallery are recent works.
I like to create on several levels simultaneously: drawing, painting, wandering in the thimble ether, then moving into the concreteness of the forest and savouring other energies.
Working in Nature regenerates me, and the ALA/WING is waiting for good weather to be covered in birch bark and colour pigments.
Writing and meditating are an integral part of my research. To prepare myself for intuition, to remove desire and haste, is to create. To create space.
Year: 2024
Technique: acrylic on canvas
Dimension: 92 x 181 cm
Intent: the work was created to cover a Japanese tatami mat.
GOLDY IS MY NAME is the work’s title: a painted canvas cover designed for yoga/stretching. One can go barefoot on paint, lie down, or meditate.
‘Goldy’ is not just a name but a symbol of adaptability and versatility. With its Germanic origins, it can be used in both masculine and feminine forms, making it a perfect fit for anyone.
Derived from the word ‘gold’, it symbolises beauty and worth, qualities that resonate with all. This historical significance adds depth to the canvas cover, making it more than a product.
Year: 2023
Technique: wood, carving, coating with birch bark, pigments and resins
Dimensions: 3 m. The final size depends on the installation on the tree.
Intent: this LandArt work is entitled INFINITE WING.
The second wing is the bent branches of the tree on which the installation will be made.
An elaborate covering of birch bark recovered from the forests of Malcantone, Switzerland, is planned.
Between the cracks, coloured pigment mixed with resin will be placed.
It is a work born of the desire to explore new horizons, other natures or states of being.
Year: 2024
Technique: mixed media on canvas
Dimensions: 15 x 15 x 4 cm
Intent: When I explore a concept, I start with something I can handle or shape.
THE THREE HORIZONS is a small canvas with a significant meaning.
The painting is visible from three angles: frontal or the I Am, the totalising field outside space-time. The Mind on one side and the Desire on the other.
A binomial that inForms and attracts substance for the becoming.
Year: 2024
Technique: black pigment, white neon light
Dimension: 80 cm
Intent:
the work of light art ENLIGHTENMENT is inspired by Goethe’s phrase:
– ‘Where there is much light, the shadow is blackest’.
Delving into one’s darkness to find the place-not-place where the unmanifest Light is everlasting… opens us up to new understandings and more loving attitudes.
Not out of renewed goodness, but because the substance of which we are made, at some existential level, is the same, preferences lose meaning.
