VIEW IN MY ROOM
Valentina May. I met Valentina in Kennel Ferrara. The first time I saw her was a Sunday, it was summer, and it was love at first sight. In this work I used oil pastels which I then scratched, in some places, like an animal, to have a hatch, a texture of light. The choice was dictated by the profile of the frame, the big nose, that characterizes it, as if to remind the ancient portraits, the importance given to the posture, the importance of the look that aims to something that the viewer can not see but only imagine.

Italy
I was born in the West, too early. What make beautiful and important this historical period that I ‘ve lived until this moment are three events:having studied painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome with Enzo Brunori, some moments of happiness and the tenderness of my lovely dog. My poetry is founded on the words of Aristotele: "The whole is greater than the sum of its parts." And it is totalitarian. I often you are what you do and you do what you are. I painted many cities and maps (the same city, Ferrara beautiful, timeless, metaphysical, silent, magical) and animals and landscapes. I explore the absence, loss, emptiness. I consider the single man without putting him on the scene. My themes are nature and culture. Art is my job. I owe a lot to William Shakespeare. I paint my work on both the front and the back. The back is to me as the intimate and everyday life, things that are not seen but they belong to the whole life. And it's like to have to deal with the invisible. So art is one with life, and life is one with the art.
