Lo gran mar dell’essere by Iginio De Luca, opening during the Venice Gallery Weekend, explores the connection between river and marine landscapes, particularly those of the Tiber River and the Venetian lagoon. The works investigate the transition between the visible and invisible, between what emerges and what remains submerged. The artist creates a tension between sea and river, symbols of fluidity and instability, but also of memory and oblivion.
The exhibition invites the viewer to reflect on the perception of the work, which does not immediately reveal itself but requires time and thought. The pieces raise questions about the relationship between the internal and the external, between the object and the observer.
A chance to explore De Luca’s work, which, through a complex visual narrative, offers a reflection on the redemption and recovery of objects and images in the contemporary context.
