Black Holes
Light and darkness exhorts to ask questions; the oxymoron between what was and what is not anymore, encourages to seek answers. Eternal dualism between finite and infinite, between hope and disappointment, between memory and oblivion seem to flow on the surface of paintings as the mythological Mnemosyne and Lethe. Black and white, positive and negative, seem to struggle to overwhelm each other, without ever redeem itself. It is a binary system, a sort of battle fought by the desire of resilience and inexorability of oblivion.
