Martino Lorenzon In The Studio
I usually work in the studio and at home too, more than a physical space to working with painting practice is like entering an intimate space in which time changes perspective adapting its consistence according to the inner rythms.
Describe your creative process.
Using minimal elements I see them forming some sort of "meta-images", images that point, all the rest which is not being represented there. Minimal elements could be repeated with micro gestures or crosshatches forming sign-structured fields; sometimes I use full filled color fields. At any rate, the artwork, through superimposed and juxtaposed processes in the making, becomes material and immaterial at the same time. At the end I think I am filling the pictorial field to make it empty, in a sort of "first-add-then-take-away” procedure.
