ABOUT CURIOSO: D'ASSAI PENSIERI
The work is a return to Nature and drawing, created to give to the viewer the opportunity to explore and walk in a paper forest, just like a walk inside one of the Da Vinci's manuscripts but in the shadow of skyscrapers.. In the heart of contemporary Milan, the dialogue with this special square is one of contrast and opposition.
The work stems from a reflection on the themes of Nature, drawing and curiosity for Leonardo Da Vinci.
For me Leonardo Da Vinci has a fluid and flexible curiosity. Curiosity to look inside things, to observe from multiple points of view to understand the world. The imagination. The desire for beauty.
I imagine him full of undisciplined, interdisciplinary, constantly moving, restless thoughts.
Nature seems to speak to Leonardo with a voice that only he can hear: the whispers that carry him throughout his artistic life are also found in the tools that he himself uses to draw and paint.
Nature and the drawing in Leonardo Da Vinci interact actively and intimately, they are part of each other in a balance made up of strokes, shades and chiaroscuro.
An intimate constant presence and connection with Nature.
