These new works, entitled 'In Teca', are like mosaic fragments made of nickel-plated brass hooks. The acrylic paint sometimes reveals the surface of the wood, whose knots and veins direct the compositions. The tablets are suspended inside openable display cases. Onion skins are blocked by hooks for hanging pictures and could change over time, as if they were marking the time of some kind of modular constellation on golden micro-sundials. In these new works Bruna Esposito rediscovers the emblematic strength of natural elements, very fragile but potentially very long-lasting, whose custody is entrusted to the hands of others, who can open the case. The author writes: “Usually paintings sealed under glass have always appeared to me as frozen and inaccessible. I hope the display cases will shorten the conventional distance between the work and the viewer. I hope the gaze is collected and welcomed. (Federico Luger)
