Last of the assemblages, this picture is certainly also affected by the fact that one thing leads to another. However, we are increasingly reconnecting to the cherished themes of painting as writing. The need for the idea of paper, even if frayed, where to leave a mark.

Youthful drawing taken from a real moment experienced
sanguine on paper - 17 x 16 cm
Year painting: 1978
Sketch made as a technical test with the aim of subsequently making it into a canvas, but never executed again. It belongs to the period where a desire for change begins to manifest itself. A period where the study of surrealism began to capture my attention in a particular way, giving rise to the need to transmit with different themes.

His is a work that began in the 2000s and ended (repaired due to transport damage) in 2005. Years in which the attraction for a material composition was strong. Among other things, the use of pastes and systems based on the classics with glues, plaster and linseed oil bring us back to other eras. Basic techniques for the preparation of canvases and boards.

From the confines of one's own prison, dream of being in another place. Beyond the barrier lies happiness. And there the thought leads obsessively. All that remains is to dream of dematerializing to immediately find yourself where you would so ardently desire to be.

One of the very first works sold to a friend of the time
pencil and charcoal - 29 x 20 cm
Year painting: 1977
I draw in pencil and charcoal on paper from way back in 1977 when I was still linked to the figurative in an attempt to understand what my limits were and my possible future as a painter. The theme, clearly carnival-like, represents a classic of the theme in question with the representation of the sad claun when he is out of the scene. Metaphor of how we are all often actors on the stage of this life, not always being able to be ourselves

I was not very young and I was studying as a surveyor but at the same time I was taking painting more and more seriously and I was starting my studies on a private level

References and games with the sense of the word culture and acculturation, of what the approach to writing was in my time as pieces of a puzzle destined to forge thoughts

Paper that becomes a universe, an infinite space of possibilities and interaction with the immense reality and emotion
mista - 13 x 15 cm
Year painting: 1977
In memory of the countless times that the Simplon saw me pass through it. To the hopes and pains that I left behind him. In memory of the crazy races towards joy, towards what was to become my destiny. Like entering and exiting a dream, like drinking the poison that slowly acts but kills. Dozens of trains took me towards the wind, a thousand lashes of snowy air, millions of affectionate transports in which to drown to be reborn. So journey after journey until the last departure, until the irreversible passing away.

At the base is the idea that everything always starts from the infinitely small which then evolves (Guccini also said this). It is the thought that from an abstract thing becomes something comcreto. It is from a spot (a point ?!) a novel and then life.

With this third work in the "concatenations" series, the process of rapprochement with the theme of 'a' begins. Talk about a beginning and an end. And the background is becoming paper. Support on which to fix your thoughts.
mixed technique on cardboard - 21 x 30 cm
Year painting: 2003
Lso known by the title of wait, the painting is part of the 'saga' of the 'a's. The 'a' from a prehistoric symbol for an ox's head is thought of as the beginning. The basis for giving written form to the voice (to the thought). It is understood as a point of origin and in this case 'earthly' means rooted and therefore suitable for the future development of a plant. It's a motto of my thought; always start from 'to'.

Everything in this world is inevitably connected to everything around it. Everything inside and outside of us is part of one. Who knows what the true potential of every thought, of every dream.

Year painting: 2002
Apparently a landscape, in reality my mind materialized a memory. A connection, however impervious, with a past lived with great passion beyond the Alps. An Amarcord that I think happens to many taken by unusual memories

Painted while I was in the military and sold to a colleague, I am publishing this photo in black and white as I have nothing else left. In truth, this work, like all those of this period, is very colourful. For the rest, it is not difficult to understand the state of mind of the period in which I was very distressed.

This is the second work on the topic. In this work, in a more intense light, the "concatenation" becomes less linear, more tangled. Often, even though there is a link between things and/or thoughts, everything gets tangled up and you have to find the root of it.

Every now and then I like to go back to my youth and if an old, never-finished medium attracts me, I'll get into it. So this is just a job I started a long time ago that I liked to revisit
Pastels - 28 x 20 cm
Year painting: 1976
This was a very particular design due to the mix of 'isms' unconsciously used. Cubism, surrealism etc.; The fact was that classical figurative representation, also for the studies I was carrying out in parallel, was no longer enough for me and I wanted to leave more space for my imagination.

This is the first of a series, born from my reflections on the artist's vaunted "inspiration". As for me, it has always been natural for me to follow paths; new work is born from work. Like; you travel along a road and at a certain point you come across a side road, you become curious and, deviating from the main one, you start to follow it. The path may be new but you remain yourself. Here is the link (connection) between the before and the present.
