Artwork Description

Chest

0.0 x 0.0

mixed technique on canvas, 60 x 60 cm, 2011 "Chest" is made in a personal technique, through the acrylic transfer on canvas of a drawing made in pencil. It combines a graphic background with a sketch representing a nude female sitting on a cube. At a close look one can see remnants of flaky paper resulted over the transfer process, seemingly traces of the moment when the woman, motionless, knowing that she is seen, relaxes her back... the negative of an instant that was well hidden face-down in a deep chest, until someone would scratch the surface and the memory gaps would flood the present.
