Piccinelli; by creating this work on paper; demonstrates how important the void is in his way of composing. He seeks a visual force but with the least possible means.

"The body of collage work is marked by the coexistence of different media and techniques; and characterized by its intuitive tearing methods; similar to the brushstrokes of abstract expressionist paintings. Motherwell's collages combine packaging labels; paper torn; cardboard and other materials; revealing how he viewed the pictorial surface as a testing ground for creating sensations"

Filigranes Editions; Motherwell.“At this stage of the creative process; the purely aesthetic – which is the expression of the sensuality of the world –

ceases to be the ultimate goal of the work. Instead; it turns into a medium and becomes a means of entering into

the infinity of feeling to condense it into an object of perception.

Robert Motherwell.
