This compelling abstract textile painting stands as a definitive visual statement within the celebrated Durero series by international fine artist Ana Seggiaro. The large scale mixed media composition relies on premium print on cloth to establish an intellectual dialogue with historical geometric engraving patterns. Seggiaro masterfully subverts a pristine white circular knotwork layout by overlaying a vibrant right angle grid of multicolored embroidery, thread blocks including soft pink, sky blue, moss green and solid black panels that warp the flat geometry.
Ana Seggiaro's training as an engraver awakens her fascination for the works of Durero and Piranesi. This leads her both to recover the language of engraving itself through other media and to appropriate and dialogue with the works of these artists. This conversation, however, does not start from a solemn, pristine, or untouchable place, but from the recognition of her virtues, thus allowing her to operate, rebuild, eliminate, and retouch fragments to compose her own work. Starting from pre-existing works of hers, Seggiaro builds a kind of mimicry of the original pieces in an exercise of visual reconstruction that she uses as a structure for her production. But the works are just that, states altered by her gaze that resemble, without repeating, the original piece.
