suspension of blue (2025)Acrylic painting by Ivana Urso

A window framed in the breath of water. Along the edges, the blue becomes a storming ocean and a restless sky. Stains and veins run like waves against a pale shore, leaving trails of ink that slip away like rebellious thoughts.

At the center, a dance of blacks and greys in suspension. The shapes do not insist on being something specific, yet they suggest everything: a dissolving silhouette, an elongating shadow, a dream taking form only to return to vapor. Tiny splashes and swift strokes speak of movement, as if the image were caught in the act of becoming.

Amid the dark tones, a flash of gold. A glowing fragment floating like an island risen from nowhere. The eye pauses there, enchanted by that precious heart that breaks the weight of night and illuminates the composition.

The paper breathes suspension, just as the title suggests. It is the moment before something happens, or perhaps just after. A held breath in blue, in the mystery of a form free to be interpreted.
