Paesaggio (dalla finestra di Giammo) - Landscape (through Giammo's window) is a large-sized painting included in a larger body of work. It deals with the ideas of memory and intimacy. All my "landsape" paintings depict something from my past.
One year ago I returned to my birthplace and I started to build a photographic archive. I was very fascinated by the plants because they still lived in the same place of my childhood. Plants were the only things that seemed the same to me: everything else was changed. So I decided to paint them in a rarefied space, as they are in my memory. I also decided to paint all the imperfections and signs that charaterize them. To paint them using a meticulous thecnique would be a way to study those subjects, allowing myself to know them in a deeper way.
