Michele Parisi's Solo Exhibition in Trento Explores Light and Shadow
Michele Parisi (Riva del Garda, 1983) presents 'Al sole misuro i miei passi' at Galleria Paolo Maria Deanesi in Trento, featuring 21 works from 2020. The exhibition divides into two series: 'Esercizi di dimenticanza,' figurative pieces alluding to female nudity inspired by antique paper studies, and architectural views of interiors suggested by gates or stairs leading to an undisclosed 'inside.' Parisi explores light through color subtraction, creating shadow paths where sunlight becomes an inner presence. Small paintings resemble notes from antique collections, referencing libraries, planispheres, statue casts, and de Chirico-like cornices with silent figures. The indistinct prevails, but light reveals that figures are visible only in shadow. The exhibition runs at Galleria Paolo Maria Deanesi in Trento.
