Virtual model - The castle

An original piece from the series “Virtual model”, oil on thick paper, 35 x 63 cm, 2023.

I like to create imaginary worlds. I invent virtual simplified realities, probably the result of travel memories and past experiences. I choose the types of buildings, I place them on a fictitious ground, check the colors of the various parts, the lights, the elements of the landscape. And then I choose a point of view and portray this place of fantasy. The traditional landscape painting has to deal with the atmospheric variables, with the mutability of natural light. Here, on the contrary, not only everything is static, but I can change the various elements at will: add or remove pieces, move something, try the effects of shadows depending on the movement of the lights. But it is a small difference, and also the difference between "real" reality and virtual reality is now small: it has become part of our daily lives, changed our way of perceiving, and somehow has itself become real.

Meeting on the balcony

 

A woman in a dressing gown, on the balcony of a city building (the city can be seen in the background). With her a dog and a cat, probably her family. An unexpected encounter takes place on the balcony. Will it bring good or bad news?
