About this Event
In “Pure Emotion” Argentine visual artist Rocky Cervini explores the vulnerability of the human figure through a conceptual and material journey where words and matter become symbolic instruments. Drawing on his parallel practice as a translator, Cervini treats language and image as interconnected signifiers: lived experience becomes gesture, gesture becomes form, and form returns to life on canvas.
Artist Statement:
"As a translator and visual artist, I use words and matter as symbolic instruments to represent signifiers. In a conceptual-material-immaterial journey, I conceive my characters from an experiential mark, I turn them into pictorial representations and there they come back to life, dialoguing with the observer to leave an incorporeal mark in the memory of the experience.
The figures I portray, both dissociated and coexisting, embody the vulnerability of bodies in the face of an adverse world from which they cannot protect themselves. They remain submerged and immobile, trembling, howling, hurting, and merging with each other. Their gestures and silences hint at untold stories, echoes of experiences that reveal the deep connection between physical and emotional suffering".
