Enigm in the leaves Oil on canvas 57x77 (1998) Show N. 2 by Sarossa

Comment by Floriana D'Auria

Mythology returns to be actual in the series of the Sibilles Cumane. The ancient legend of the oracle, that interprets the enigma of man's future in the leaves, is reread in modern key. The oniric landscape of jagged mountains as chains of inaccessible and lunar mountains, is a place of the history and am emblem of the existence. The frailty of human life in comparison of the history and the imponderable, produces in the eye of the observer a sublime feeling. Among the rocks animate forms also take life yet staying petrified. They are recognized only by the investigative eye, capable to see over what may be seen: the image is made more inquietant because full of symbols not expressed and to be searched.
