This work emerges from the encounter between two opposing yet complementary chromatic presences.
In the upper section, a deep red concentrates—warm and restrained—an intense tone that evokes matter, the body, an inner light that does not erupt but remains suspended.
Below, a sand tone, soft and silent, opens the space, bringing balance, distance, and breath.
Between these two fields the cycle takes shape: a circular gesture drawn freehand.
The mark rises from the lighter area and moves toward the red, crossing the boundary between colors like a motion that returns, oscillates, and transforms.
The line is never perfectly closed: it vibrates, overlaps, breaks, and resumes, revealing the rhythm of the hand and the memory of the gesture.
The cycle does not divide, but connects.
It is the point of contact between tension and stillness, between intensity and silence.
A fragile equilibrium, always on the edge, renewed with every gaze.
The work is part of the Cycles series, an exploration of repetition, return, and transformation.
Each piece is a variation of the same gesture—similar, yet never identical—like emotional passages moving through time.
The vintage frame, restored and finished in satin black with an inner gold insert, is an integral part of the work.
It is not decorative, but defines a material boundary that reinforces the presence of color and gesture, placing memory and contemporaneity in dialogue.
A dark cycle crosses the boundary between red and sand: a return that vibrates, opens, breathes.
