Patrick Piccinelli's work entitled "On The Border Between Mountains And Air" should be understood symbolically. This painting is not a literal depiction of mountains and air. It is a visual metaphor representing the border between two worlds; between life and death; between reality and imagination; or even between knowledge and the unknown. Patrick Piccinelli approaches this theme (which suggests the exploration of human existence in all its complexity) using abstract visual language. Its composition is based on the visual dialogue between geometry and the random trace of the brush; between stains; splashes and the precision of the rectilinear structure. Thus he brings whoever contemplates the painting to a reflection on the limits and borders that define our condition.
