The Pathless Way The title, drawn from the lexicon of negative philosophy and mystical reflection, fully embodies the ambiguity and tension that run through Valerio’s work: the path exists, yet it is not traced; the image appears, yet it never fully defines itself. His paintings arise from a primordial, almost ritual gesture: a ground of charcoal and natural resin that receives successive layers of oil, in a slow emergence from darkness. The result is a constellation of suspended presences, liminal forms that question the gaze and invite attentive, silent, and mindful contemplation. In an age of acceleration, Valerio evokes the archaic act of slowing down, of remaining, of contemplating. The booth will be arranged according to the gallery’s rigorous aesthetic, as a sacred, symmetrical space inspired by centrally planned architecture and ancient places of worship. The walls will host the paintings like icons of a lost language, while the pittosculture, placed along the central axis, will act as thresholds and focal points. The entire installation will function as a space of suspension, conceived to generate an “other” dimension in which the works are not merely viewed but experienced, in a collective space of concentration and stillness. Studio la Linea Verticale seeks to give voice to an artist of vision who works with depth and radical coherence, and who, through a personal and consistent language, emerges as a sensitive cartographer of invisible territories. His work offers a lesson in attentiveness, care, and listening to matter, a form of aesthetic and spiritual resistance to the noise of the world.
