About How to paint dreams in the sky
Narrating fables and finding desire places, worlds of hard-to-alter intimacy, full of the Kantian ideal of a beauty that does not require explications over and above is harmonious formal self-reference, speaking about a moonlit night or a dark night with its deafening silence extracted from a poem of St. John of the Cross´ soul, in order to reach the deepest part of the spirit, is perhaps the aspiration of an impossible Icaria but, in the end, the aspiration-cum-painting of an artist that, as in the case of Maiacovski and Malevich, back on the second decade of 20th century, found in flight a reason to experiment visually with the infinite.
