2020 Limited Edition
by Riccardo Guasco
Everything begins with a conversation, an intimate and profound exchange of stories and confessions that is, at the same time, light and carefree. An interweaving of lines, trajectories and geometries flow and chase each other over blank pages, like the words that flow between two friends who haven’t seen each other for ages. Memories and lines blend together, creating shapes coloured with shades both delicate and bold. The more intimate pinks and greys explode in the light-heartedness and joy of fuchsia and blue. The two women’s spirits lighten as they laugh, sip wine and whisper confessions, becoming grapes and clouds, caressing their wine glasses and losing themselves in ever happier memories. A small bird comes to rest between them, like the intake of breath that precedes laughter; like the signature on completion of a painting; La Pettegola.
