See Me With The Eyes Of The Senses

Sight can influence the viewed element only if it contributes, directly, to the shaping of your experiences.

I was on vacation in Greece. Always beautiful, always welcoming, with spectacular landscapes, the Ionian Sea delighted my eyes so much that I could only look at it, without caring about time or exposure to the sun. And I looked at her with that serene look, directed inward, understanding my freedom, the state of mind coming as if from the painter's unitary consciousness, which manifests that mysterious connection between everything that means creation and detachment from everyday life.

It also has its great life, its special grace, just as the painter has the science of working on the palette, of obtaining the pigmentary qualities in advance through multiple mixtures. And I think that nothing matters more than seeing it again with the eyes of the mind and with a clear mind. I see her again with a vivid tone, to talk to her, to photograph her, to feel her breeze with that touch of the past that repeats itself, having an exemplary value for the present. To be so close to her that I can smell her, hear the sound of the waves rolling on the shore, feel the water caressing my feet as it wipes away my footprints on the sand.

Without realizing it, the painter's palette was enriched with particularly inspired, poetic means of expression, in terms of color and drawing, giving rise to the "always new" type effect produced by a creation extended to a new horizon. Moreover, by mixing the blue of the sea with the serenity of the artist's eyes according to all the rules of symmetry, a fact that leaves room for argumentation in a framework that allows free expression, I managed to translate on canvas an image meant to suggest a state of tranquility and peace. At last I was touched by the longing of a soul consolation: better to approach a visual combination of colors than to lose myself in a distant perspective.

What you see can amplify the feeling of real in an area of memories that mirror that "expression of one thing through another"?

The sea has its smell, salty and clean, the breeze that blows bringing me into contact with dozens of substances that come from the organic matter of the sea. And the smell, having a concrete character because it starts from experience and remains in contact with it, amplifies the feeling of realness, controllability of the natural environment. You realize that painting has as a pivot for receiving emotions a phenomenon of living the experience of life, so it is also based on a science of the senses bathed in the light of the soul.

On the other hand, smell is a stabilizer of emotions, a particularly powerful factor for awakening memories, a trigger of memories more authentic than taste or hearing. So, the painter, regarding the chemistry of paints, must categorically combine the visual and olfactory senses in such a way that the brain oxygenates itself, protects itself against exhaustion. And if it is so, then the smell changes the painter's perception of the surrounding environment, changing the way he lays down the colors under the action of a feeling of otherness, turning into an incurable romantic who combines relaxation with the idea of purity, of communion with nature.

In this case, the possibilities of establishing an agreement between the colors of a quasi-figurative painting, carrying meaning, depicting the image of a revelatory rest, of a mystical state of mind, are unlimited and depend on the artist's sensitivity to smells, to the perception of colors in the case of an irresistible element. Definitely, the activity of the senses must arouse his reason, challenge it. Through this challenge, reason remembers, while ideas always come from impressions, emotions, color expressions.

Can the image to which your creation relates extend to a visual field that involves the exclusive experience of intense emotions during a time that is being relived?

Here, a purely contemplative attitude, enveloping a harmonious dynamism of the shades of the sea, is related to the way someone characterizes the painter Minu Movila, so that the comparison with me seems detached from the fragment of an existence from which nothing is missing, except a small detail that, placed as it should, can transform the feeling of freedom into a real jewel.

"The painter Minu Movila debates with the help of the structural precepts of the two-dimensional, angles, perspectives, plans, probing into the mysterious diary of the concrete. Finding solutions and leitmotifs in which the imagistic fragment is revealed, narrating visual terms, the experience and sensitivity of the artist to leave room for aesthetic interventions Minu Movila remains a romantic in which the direct involvement of the creative soul is constant, a fact that can be read especially in the chromatic modulations, which fold on technical and stylistic terms, potentiated in the right variants."

Through such a comparison, between me and him, between two artists similar in soul, the increased vision in the living fire of a memory of a lifetime deserves a careful analysis. The involvement of the soul in an act of creation, in a place where the artist thinks, imagines, restructures his experience mentally, must find its stylistic form in the use of a reality not yet experienced, above the ephemera of a moment suspended in the imaginary.

Being more than I think I am, I still wonder if I don't have the traits of a soulful artist, touched by an area in the visual field that can bring calm and soothing vibration to a space that expands with its mind, colors becoming the palette through which I can bring to life the permanent exposition of a complicated but simply beautiful theme: "The Immortal Longing".

To shape a positive and constructive reality, you have to pay attention to what you observe and how you interpret your perceptions, so that all the experiences you transmit emphasize the importance of the image you relate to.

See Me With The Eyes Of The Senses, with the longing of a heart swirling like the sea, and you will discover the depths and riches that our experiences together can offer. Remember those emotions that vibrate within you, immortalize them in a dream image, and let them envelop you in the warmth of a burning imagination.

Now you are an artist too.
