Protezione

“Protezione” is built around an essential, enveloping form that evokes a primordial gesture of welcome and care. The incised mark, sharp and textural, characteristic of the woodcut, creates a balance between solid and empty spaces that heightens the symbolic power of the image. The choice of Japanese paper lends a delicate yet striking result, in which the lightness of the support meets the strength of the mark. The work suggests a dimension that is at once intimate and universal, where protection becomes a space of relationship, balance and quiet connection.
