A spiral of light and colour whips across the sky, translating the visceral sensation of wind into paint. Puliafico’s palette knife carves airborne ribbons—pearled whites, lilacs, teal and citrus—above a vibrating ground of greens and violets, where petals and leaves become pure gesture. The vortex at left concentrates energy, then releases it in sweeping arcs that glide over a mirrored inlet: a lyrical balance between landscape and abstraction. Each ridged stroke catches ambient light, making the surface shimmer and shift—an irresistible focal point for contemporary interiors. This work exemplifies Puliafico’s Mediterranean modernism and collector appeal

First-rate oil colors of the Florentine brand "DI VOLO" applied with spatula were used for the painting, and the pictorial support is a cottono canvas pre-painted for oil painting with Gesso and Glue.
