Going backwards ("core")

 
Coring. A return journey.
How do you show the internal and concentrated gesture of stratification? How do you deal with a large space starting from a small gesture? How do you get straight to the heart of the matter? How do you show the most internal part, the central lump, the essence, the deepest point of the time-substance that has been stratified on the “Infinite Painting” over the years? How do you delicately and carefully hold the internal heart of this organism that I call the “Infinite Painting” and bring it out?
The urge to examine the “Infinite Painting” arose from these questions.
This is a photographic print from a lucid stratigraphy of a fragment of my “Infinite Painting” taken in November 2014.
The diagnostic analysis and the scientific report of the micro-stratigraphic study were made by CSG Palladio.
I would like offer my sincere thanks all the people who worked on this project:
Dr Paolo Cornale – Laboratory Head
Arch. Chiara Sotgia
Dr Sonia Cattazzo
Dr Elena Monni
Dr Giorgio Cracco
