The very act of painting has a peculiar significance in monochrome. The themes of narrative and representation are removed, the focus is shifted to the real elements of painting, the support and its shape, tint and the way of building it up by the relationship of contiguity to the support. |

The absence of figures, history and narrative in monochrome paintings is intended to provoke the mind of the observer at first to generate What-you-see, then for wandering into a territory that poet Giacomo Leopardi defined as the place where “ the soul imagines what it has not seen "and, after wandering at will, the soul accepts the invitation of the monochrome and takes rest in the here and now of the unknown that surrounds it. |

The retina communicates with the brain and "talks" to the mind of the beholder, the flow is in two directions; in this way, it restarts from where it came, back to where it started and going back brings along other images that were not there previously. |

Awareness through the sense of sight is different from the word that describes it as well as can be distinct the appearances that reality assume, however, their substance is the same. In a famous Chinese tale, Chuang-tzu dreamed of being a butterfly, but who says that is not the butterfly dreaming Chuang-tzu?
The description is not the described ,
the word is not the thing it designates.

“Family Resemblances” MONOTYPES |
A monotype is a print, but with one major difference from other printmaking processes:
the artist creates exactly one print, instead of multiples (called editions).
This is due to the way a monotype is made.
