Contemporary artwork by Renata Giannelli , created in 2024 on thickened rigid panel, with a surface of 50 × 50 cm .
The work is born from a collage of handmade cotton fibre papers , specially created by the artist for this work and enriched with Ginkgo biloba leaves , whose presence introduces a natural and symbolic element into the material.
The composition is achieved through the impression of a wooden matrix , inked with a palette knife and impressed onto the surface of gold and silver leaf . This process generates a texture rich in variation and depth, further developed through interventions of oil paint and charcoal .
The title of the work recalls that particular moment when a perception transforms into intuition , suddenly opening up the possibility of a new vision and a deeper understanding. It is a suspended, almost magical and mystical moment, a sudden revelation that, at least sometimes, is part of everyone's experience.
The dialogue between the natural material of the paper, the Ginkgo leaves and the luminosity of the gold and silver visually translates this passage: from perceiving to understanding, from intuition to awareness .
Technique: Handmade cotton fiber paper collage with Ginkgo biloba leaves, woodblock printing on gold and silver leaf, oil and charcoal paint on thickened hardboard. Year: 2024. Dimensions: 50 × 50 cm.
The work is shipped in rigid packaging and is delivered with a certificate of authenticity .
