Original artwork description
Alma Terra is conceived as an exploration of the body no longer understood as figure, but as field.
A place of passage in which the human form gradually dissolves into matter, becoming ground and stratification.
The skirt expands like a territory built from real botanical imprints, layers of glazes and chromatic sediments. Leaves, flowers and vegetal traces are not decorative elements, but memory of a season, remnants of a time in becoming, signs of vital cycles.
The earth receives, transforms, dissolves and regenerates. Earth as an extended body, a fertile and generative place.
The figure barely emerges, fragile and transitory. It is suspended in a silent hour in which individual identity fades and gives way to a deeper time, biological and cyclical.
The White Hour series, to which this painting belongs, investigates liminal states of being, moments in which the body ceases to be subject and becomes process, in which time not only flows, but stratifies: the hour of remembrance and of that which, in its uniqueness, has passed through it. Within this series Alma Terra represents the subterranean and generative dimension: time in which the body silently nourishes within its darkness, in which light matures from the dark and in which those who pass through it leave their traces.
Work executed with acrylic colors and collage on birch wood cradled panel.
The botanical prints were handmade on tissue paper, first hand-dyed and then printed using leaves, flowers, and small branches. The edges are painted and it is ready to hang. The surface is finished with a double layer of water-based satin varnish, which makes it resistant to UV rays and the passage of time.
