Artistic Direction's Advice
Art Gallery III Millennium

Figurative work of symbolic genre, it puts at center of treatment the woman figure. This theme is actual and of great pregnancy in the contemporary times, when the woman's role in different societies has different and contradictory aspects.

Is woman symbolically or physically blinded? Is woman deprived of his ego?
Is she deprived of identity and so changed into simple object?
Woman can not watch and so, is she depending and slave and does she need an ethical guide?
a spiritual guide?
Otherwise, does she blind herself voluntarily?
And does she assume of her's own choice the role of slave and inept man's appendix?
This work opens the debate and asks women to compare with these painful themes also appealing to a charming polemic inspiration.
