White shapes seem to interact in a motionless dance.
The scenario is ambiguous, the space is empty, sterile.

The candid perfection of the volumes refers to harmony and golden relationships, but here the balance is ambivalent, poised between what can be perceived as pure and deformed, sensual and clinical, ethereal and disturbing.

Turgid bodies seem to penetrate, engulf and separate each other, leaving mutilations, voids, growths, lacerations.

The eggs here take on values that transcend their mere physical nature. From an edible substance they become matter that embodies and reflects existential conditions.

 

Forme bianche sembrano interagire in una danza immobile.
Lo scenario è ambiguo, lo spazio vuoto, sterile.

La perfezione candida dei volumi rimanda ad armonia e rapporti aurei, ma qui l’equilibrio è ambivalente, in bilico tra ciò che può essere percepito come puro e deforme, sensuale e clinico, soave e molesto.

Corpi turgidi paiono penetrarsi, fagocitarsi, separarsi, lasciando mutilazioni, vuoti, escrescenze, slabbrature.

Le uova assumono qui valenze che trascendono la loro mera natura fisica. Da sostanza commestibile diventano materia che incarna e riflette condizioni esistenziali.
