“Untitled PR12” 2020
acrylic on linen, 100x150x4cm
Capozzi transcends representation, but uses all available elements to allude to an expanded reality.
In his works, the artist wants to express the concept of interdependence and impermanence, with figures, like ghosts, that inhabit a single instant and on the connection with our deepest part, the expanded states of consciousness that generate visions, evolution and awareness, in a characteristic perceptive, almost theatrical mise-en-scène that wants to get as close as possible, to make visible, here and now, what is not visible.
The relationship between light and colour in painting embraces speed and instinct, making the moment in which the work is completed and the concept of creation itself the protagonist. The painting itself is a trace of this gesture, a painting not of representation, but part of reality.
