The voice of nature - of paintings of the artist Paola Scialpi









ECO/VISIONI 2011 è un progetto di FORUM CONVERGENZE POSSIBILI SALENTO 2010, Arcadia Lecce, Fondo Verri, Laboratorio di Ricerca sull’Arte Contemporanea, che cerca di favorire un discorso a 360 gradi sulla cultura dell’ambiente e dell’eco/compatabilità a più livelli di intervento tematico e critico. Al fine di definire l’eco/visione per un sistema, è necessario prendere in considerazione informazioni di natura ambientale su testi, contesti e immagini per scandagliare livelli di approfondimento differenti.

In the occasion of his solo artist Paola Scialpi said: "I always thought that an artist must convey, through his art, of certain messages. Been painting for over forty years and for many years I have created works that are likely to have satisfied the viewer but not me. I tried to paint what I liked but I thought it was just a facade and I did not see what was hidden beyond it. Then after the first major arrival of Albanians in Italy for at that time teaching in Brindisi, having seen up close the suffering of the people, the loss of dignity to which the subject not being able to do otherwise, I started to feel my art as a vehicle Information and since then I have produced work that somehow speaks of situations of great difficulty: abnormal food ball, detention, violence against women, war, child prostitution and more. At the same time I removed all the colors that had been part of my art using only red, flanked by white and black. In this way, reducing the range of colors were captured more attention from the content of the message that I wanted to convey. I recently bought a house in the country and this has helped me to get close to nature in a way that I no longer felt since childhood. I felt emotions before the unexpected birth of a rose, an animal that suckles its young, the birth of flowers while untreated trying hard to be born anyway. And here I am ready to create works that I called ECOVISION where the only color is white. I tried to convey what I percepito.E 'as if slowly, without us noticing there's a blanket of fog is laying between us and nature is not making us realize that it constantly asks us for help. The blanket of fog that shrouds everything is our indifference and our arrogance. White is the purity of that nature wants to recover and that is losing forever and here we have the representatives of Arcadia and the footsteps of the Knights Templar know how big the meaning of white. I do not think a few works create a spell but that is persuasive il mio contributo per quello che la natura mi continua ad elargire.”
