“Come puoi vedere, quello che io faccio non ha nulla a che fare con possibili significati nascosti. I miei quadri sono solo io e il mio modo di comunicare con la natura, cioè la vita ... Nient'altro. Ecco dove mi riposo, ed è lì che ho trovato risposte. Ecco dove, nella pittura. Nei colori e le forme, nelle forme e i colori. Per quanto riguarda quello che chiamano “tutto ciò che c’è dietro a un'opera d'arte”, non credo che su questo io possa dare una risposta. Non è il mio ruolo. Se una cosa del genere esiste, se la si può trovare, me lo facciano proprio sapere.
Ultimamente, ho scoperto la mia faccia tra i rami degli alberi intrecciati, ed Elisabetta, piena di curve che guardava fuori dal finestrino della macchina o da dietro le tende. Ho trovato Costantino ricostruito nelle rocce fresche e selvatiche, il suo sguardo ovunque... Pezzi di un puzzle, tutto confuso. Ovunque sono andata avanti con lo sguardo, ho sempre lasciato un occhio per guardare dietro. E no... non ho ancora visto curve, ombre, rami e pietre. Mi sembra di capire inoltre che ci sono altri che vorrebbero esaminare la questione con lo stesso codice. Per me gli unici codici per esaminare la questione sono verità e semplicità. Perché, come abbiamo detto, la pittura è uguale alla vita. E La vita è in tutto il mondo. Ovunque si guardi, c'è la vita.”

You have no idea how early they wake up

Well you see, what I do has nothing to do with hidden meanings.
It's just me and the way I communicate with nature, that is, life...Nothing else. That's where I rest, that's where I find answers. That's where I find painting if you wish. Colours and forms, forms and colours. As for what they call whatever is behind a work of Art, I don't think it's me that can give you an answer. It's not my role. If something like that exists, if you can find it, let me know too.
Lately, I have discovered my face amongst the interwined tree branches, and Elizabeth, full of curves on cars'windows or behind curtains. I found Constantine built in the wild bedrocks, his gaze everywhere...Pieces of a puzzle, all mixed up. Wherever I passed, I left an eye to watch behind. And no...I haven't just seen curves, shadows, branches and rocks. I gather, there must be others who would like to look into this matter using the same code. The one of truth and simplicity. Because, as we have said, painting equals life. Life everywhere. Wherever you look, there is life.
