SDED-10

SDED-10 (102419), 2019. Acrylic on canvas over cardboard 24 x 18 in (61 x 46 cm)
It's been two months almost to the day since I finished the last piece... Higher powers intervened, and I am back on track, adjusting and correcting. It was a period at the end of August when this canvas was unanimously selected to be discarded as trash. One day, I had a cup of coffee and, like always when caffeine gets strongly involved in one's life, the piece appeared to still possess a future and, without a second thought, I simply acted on it, giving my canvas the second chance it was looking for. So, yes, it's true, there-are-no-mistakes-in-art theory was tested, and it's still valid.
The piece, like all the others in the SDED series, is trying to take to the next level the artistic philosophy of Agostino Bonalumi and Lucio Fontana, whose approach to the flat surface makes a lot of sense thus when merged together, the Bonalumi's space can physically generate three dimensions just by using Fontana's solution to "open up space," in which case the flat art piece can escape the two dimension trap. The logic behind this line of action is that in order to build a three dimensional space you need 2-D elements or the 3-D doesn't happen, in which case layers become the perfect solution!
