Ten Thousand Buddhas

Satvat - Spirito/imperturbabilità - 2009

Sto seguendo l'ispirazione a lavorare ad un nuovo filone pittorico, che riguarda la figura del Buddha. In senso affatto religioso o canonico, ma con quella religiosità intuitiva che è connaturata all'Arte. Perché proprio il Buddha? Non sono buddhista, solo a free soul.

First we must consider that the Buddha is not a god, seated in a high sky and far from being human, the Buddha-nature is essentially what we are, our birthright. We have forgotten, but in us there is that same awareness, that ineffable and unabashed freedom, is in us, always present, even if the coat it with a myriad of thoughts, identification and projection, so as not to see it. It is like the vastness of the sky that is obscured by clouds, often stormy, produced by the mind, the sky, while not visible, it is always there, and remember it helps us to relativize the dramas full of thunder and lightning, which sometimes shake our lives, understanding that are transient. Here, I intend to paint the figure of the Buddha to remember, and to help to do so.

In the East of sacred images of the Buddha has been for millennia esoteric art, with different understandings of the sacred images of other religions: it tends to lead man to a religious model, to be placed outside a holiness which is prayed to intercede on human destiny. The statues and paintings of Buddha are meant to be the yantra, the tools to awaken in the individual the feeling of peace and truth that essentially belong, in this sense, the canonical approach was always secondary, and the aim was rather to provide an opportunity for an assonance deeply artistic and spiritual. To clarify this, my Buddha paintings will be even less canonical anarchist rather transformed by the force of intuition and wisdom, using the language of contemporary art, I have always hated the holy.

Buddha images for inspirations which express emotionally, not for drawing illustrations. I see the picture above, with the classic Buddha against a background of stormy Depero style, just a starting point for adventures drugs. Since 2000, I abandoned the representation, except for a few figurative incursion for special exhibitions, and the abstraction of the Mu-painting remains a permanent floating port of my artistic feeling, but in some ways the design of these pictures is my intention beyond the dichotomy between figurative and abstract, as well as Buddha is beyond all dualistic logic. Zen says that at the beginning of the trail in the mountains are mountains and the river is a river in the middle of the road around it is indefinable, somewhat abstract, and finally back to the mountains be mountains, the river and a river. But I think the vision, then, is full of a totality that transcends the usual possibility of definition.

This is what motivates me to create paintings that will inspire, in a difficult time, a shiver of nourishing compassion and spiritual celebration.
