aleph tonetto - rusted paintings
Technique Mixte, Peinture
My work departs from the fascination for a material: the metal.
I use chemical acids, flame, pigments to arrive to a not conventional landscapes that remember images of universes and distant , almost attenuate, desert planets.
I study the tonalities of the rust up to the search of the border that is found among the expression of the rusted iron and the point in which I start to see a figuration in it.
Conceptually what interests me it is to get a result on the border between the figuration and an informal relationship with the subject.
The work seems a natural concretion created only by the nature, without human imprint ,but at the same time that illustrates and narrates an image.
The nature, the landscape acquires therefore a double meaning: how subject worthy of rappresentation,of copy but at the same time as what through doing comes germinating and incredibly composing itself on the surface of the metal.
