New York, 28 December 2013. A broken
floor can seem like a diving board into the unknown, like the arrival of the
New Year with its uncertainties and potential. The elements, in contrast to the
absolute black, invite one to step into the future with courage and determination.
The geometric arrangement of the diving boards suggests order and preparation,
prompting one to imagine oneself in the act of gathering momentum to face the
unknown. I wanted to capture the moment of reflection and transition that characterises
the end of the year, urging one to dive into the future with confidence.
The work is part of an artistic
research path in which I combine memory, digital technology and painting. After
a series of photographic shots, I reconstruct the image using 3D modelling
software, associating it with a personal memory of mine. This process allows me
to explore and re-elaborate the image, simplifying the details to extract the
visual essence of the moment and create a synthetic and balanced composition. I
transport this reinterpreted vision into canvas, thus merging the initial
memory with digital processing. My intention is to transform these memories
into shared visual experiences. By combining digital and traditional
techniques, I explore how memory can be reinterpreted and relived, offering
unusual perspectives.
