Anna Paola Desiderio

We are not spectators of the world around us, no subject is distinct from the external world… no subject is separable from what it observed in the physical reality… we are waves-particles living and moving into it, we are connected and influencing each other… all immersed in a continuous, relative and indefinite movement, in which every macro-space contains infinite other micro-spaces, and every stable and unstable balance is renewing indefinitely… It is a cosmic dance of moments and spaces which constantly change and evolve.

On canvas using often their both sides through colours and materials I try to recreate these moments and spaces and become aware of the infinite possibilities they offer, always involving the movement of my body-mind-spirit as part of my artwork.

Series of 3 Triptychs of double sided paintings, that can be rotated (front/back, vertical/horizontal) creating 8 combinations as showed in the pictures... below more details.

THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF PICTURES BELOW, IF YOU ARE ON YOUR MOBILE THEY MIGHT TAKE A WHILE TO LOAD, PLEASE HAVE PATIENCE! OTHERWISE WATCHING THEM FROM A COMPUTER IS BETTER.

2020... Divided humans...

Some humans kill hope with their thoughtlessness and there, on dead things, nature knows how to succeed... while some humans, in empathy with nature and other humans, like to study and help them to survive...

New series... TURBULENCE INTO MICROMACROCOSM 2020

With the paintings below I started a collaboration with another Italian physicist, Matteo Caggio, who proposed to me to work on this subject. I couldn't be more interested! We are thinking to prepare an exhibition with visual art and science together, stay tuned!

Turbulence is one of the most difficult concepts of the fluid dynamics for physicists and mathematicians to understand, a natural phenomena that is not solved simply by writing down a mathematical equation to describe it. Turbulence happens when a smooth fluid flow starts to split into smaller eddies and vortices.

I imagine the fluid flow as the flow of our life and all the actual events (climate change, pandemic, refugees, ...) as the eddies and vortices that are changing it, our normal flow... all of it happens in the Macrocosm but also in the Microcosm.. they are mirroring each other, are ONE: MicroMacroCosm.
