Fragment of painting. Cullet and water green

Work description and interpretation
Fragment of cullet with fragments of layers of plasticine. The glass part comes from a glass chalcedony. The chalcedony is obtained by layering different colours of glass, pulling them, turning them, mixing them again. This glass technique, like mine for the “Stratifications”, is based on the superimposition of colours. This work derives from this association and similarity.
Series description and interpretation

One colour a day is sedimented one on top of the other. A stratified painting, a fragment of painting is placed next to a piece of cotisso glass obtained by melted stratification.
