THE BEAUTY IS IN MY SCULPTURES, JUST AS, ALREADY IN THE PAINTINGS OF THE "UNO INDIVIDUO" CYCLE, THERE WAS PHYSICAL/CLASSICAL BEAUTY. I NEEDED AESTHETIC BEAUTY TO BALANCE THE ALMOST ALWAYS SUFFERING CONTENT OF THE IMAGES. IT WAS AND IS A WAY TO REDEEM MAN FROM DEGRADATION AND PAIN, GIVING HIM OR RESTORING TO HIM, DESPITE EVERYTHING, DIGNITY

THE MAN AND THE CAT
Pigments on canvas - 200x170 cm, year 2001
ENCODED IMAGE
“HIS DICTATION APPEARS MARKED BY THE CADENCE OF IMPRESSIONS, BY A “SAYING” THAT BINDS THE “ENCODED IMAGE” OF THE MAN WITH THE TIE, CAUGHT IN THE MOMENT HE PUTS IT ON, TO HABITS, TO THE SEARCH FOR HIS OWN DIMENSION, HIS OWN WAY OF BEING AND, AT TIMES, OF IMPOSING HIMSELF”
Excerpt from review by Angelo Mistrangelo.

“FOR YOU, I DESCENDED INTO THE INFERNAL ABYSSES TO CHOOSE THE BURNISHED COPPER AT THE EDGE OF THE SKY TO STEAL FROM THE ANGELS THE WHITE OF THEIR ROBES AND FROM THE ARCHANGELS THEIR ARROWS. I CORRUPTED THE CHERUBIM SO THEY WOULD ENLIGHTEN ME AND THE SERAPHIM SO THEY WOULD TEACH ME TO LOVE. I SOUGHT RED COPPER AND REGENERATING GREEN FOR YOU"
