The thing happened like this: I have been drawing for years while watching a movie or a TV show. I do two things I like doing at the same time. Then some time ago I had the idea of ​​isolating some frames of what I was looking at and redesigning them. I took the screenshot and then reinterpreted them. The only rule was to always use the same technique, that is the same brush: in this case it must be a kind of oil, I wouldn't know for sure, with digital you never know. It was fine and had the sufficient degree of inaccuracy that was needed. I didn't want to copy: I wanted to extract the meaning of that scene. The criterion that made me choose was partly unconscious and partly aesthetic. Or: something told me that the scene more than others contained a sense of the film. I wouldn't say THE sense, but a possible one, yes.

Ho iniziato con lo splendido “La fantastica signora Maisel”.

The images I have obtained do not tell much of the story from which they are drawn and are not even willing to do it. They are separate entities and interpretations of a story or a frame. The more I isolated them, the more I understood that they could be different. The derivation - for those who know the works from which the frames are taken - can be clear but has no importance.

Le buone immagini stimolano la mente e non la devono appagare. Devono solo attivare un qualche processo mentale che dal punto A conduce a un altro punto. Non il punto B né il C. Un punto, non importa quale.
