#chambre 13 – painting

#chambre 13, by Ilaria Bochicchio, are bodies closed in claustrophobic compositions.
Each room is the place where these pieces of indolent flesh live, represented in their intimate abandonment. There is no anatomical description, but there’s the pulse of limbs and muscles distorted and torn.
Ilaria’s art seeks a condition that reminds the sensation of human existence. The infinite layers of color are imprisoned by the final white veil, which, like a worn out skin membrane, lets you see the inside.
The bodies become a white chromatic mass soaked in color. The final draft is reached by brush and spatula strokes aimed at creating a sculptural physicality and a disintegration evoking anthropomorphic figures. The strength and intensity of color interact with light and create volumes that alternate in solid masses and liquid zones.
