“By revealing his inner spaces, the painter is starting to reveal big themes that will deepen his own expression, that is, the insight into his own existence when creating his first cycles: Family, Genealogy, Souls of Things …in the ‘60s and the ‘70s. Within them, he examines irreversible loss of the close ones whose pale silhouettes are framed in the darkness of the painting. Human figures, sitting or standing coupled, alone or in groups, appear from the blackness only in touches of white or grey, nuances of cinnabar, ochre in brown or yellow shades…”
