The work · 2013
First dabs. Then drips. The ground is densely set with dots of red, green, blue, yellow and white; over them, metallic, shimmering rivulets fall vertically through the picture.
Bright brushstrokes lie across it, and in the centre stand two powerful gestures: a beam of yellow, beside it a tear of red.
Painted long before the palette of brilliant blue, magenta and cadmium yellow – a beginning that wants everything at once. Ogni inizio ha il suo caos – every beginning has its chaos.
Above the desk in the study: between two phone calls your eye falls on a drip and follows it all the way down.
