Messages wander from a human galaxy. They are imprisoned in an animated and vibrant atmosphere on the horizontal and vertical planes. The sense of infinity is generated by a non-aggressive ‘mordant’, which allows a rampant greyish feeling to become visible. Subsequently, a new ‘mordant’ corroded a certain point of the plate, leaving an essential concretisation of the artist’s élan. The scenography, therefore, lent itself to revelation.

The centre of gravity of the scene acted as an aggregator. A veritable whirlpool has formed and everything that appears in the landscape has been sucked into that.

The entire figurative whole is traversed by an instinctive rush of signs.

Note, in this respect, the unstoppable continuity of ‘engravings’ denoting the human impatience that the artist wants to erase. (Giulia Scarafoni, Filomena Tavares)
