HOLOGRAPHIC PRINCIPLE – 100 x 150 cm – ZINC
Large abstract work made on raw zinc, started in 2016, completed in March 2018.
It was conceived to deal with the most unknown subject: the Holographic Principle, concept of quantum gravity.
This, among other things, solves a paradox of string theory; among the distinguished physicists who have contributed (and still work) to the formulation of this immense theory, there is the name of Stephen Hawking, who died on March 14, 2018. This mourning in the world of science has led to a rapid completion of the work dedicated to him.
On the event horizon, observable limit of a black hole, there is in fact the date of the illustrious scientist’s death, as well as the formula with which he himself asked to be remembered.
As postulated, thanks to the Holographic Principle information is not lost, but remains etched and clear by resisting cosmic forces like that of a black hole … And of Death itself.
Modern artists bother to find a way to impress and express making a new creative art, sometimes by shocking art ideas, other times by minimal works; but the fact is that even creative artist offer no real art innovations, just a reinventing and a reproposal of old art techniques. In this "already seen" scenario, metal art regain this traditional art material. Creative art expressed by modern metal art is an endeavour to reinvent the metal as modern art material but, a lot of times, it is used just as a “base”: this leads to diminishing the metal as modern art material instead of elevating it to metal art. Honestly, I wouldn’t call me a modern artist, not even a creative artist, much more a real metal artist: my metal art comes form a new technique of mine which changes the metal in its depths. My metal art is not “using the modern metal to make something artistic”, while I turn metal to become art itself.
