AEQUILIBRIUM

The new pictorial cycle is defined by a series of evocative aerial views carefully selected to reveal all the power of nature. The atoll, the volcano, the glacier and the Northern Lights are just some of the places where Simafra’s highly material pictorial art will lead us. A material in continuous transformation that does not undergo the weight of the impression on canvas but, on the contrary, is valued almost in a symbiotic way. A journey in which nature comes to life and shows all its power, thanks to the skilful use of color and the balance of the full-bodied components chosen by the artist: “His exaltation of the pictorial density, through the real events of the elementary processes of matter at various levels of solidity and liquidity (from the lava of the crater to the air of a tornado to the bare earth to the water), it becomes for Simafra a question of style and content at the same time “. These are the words used by the curator of the exhibition, Marco Tonelli, to describe a multifaceted artist who ranges with his works among the hidden places of nature, with the typical ease of those who want to enhance it.
