Castagna Maurizio 1961 - XL - Il Ponte Invisibile

Maurizio Castagna – “The Invisible Bridge” Mixed media on canvas Unique work – hand-signed – certificate of authenticity included With “The Invisible Bridge,” Maurizio Castagna confronts one of the deepest themes of his research: the existence of connections that escape the eye yet determine the very meaning of relationships between things. The work unfolds around a large black arch that traverses the composition as an energetic trajectory, a silent link that unites distant and seemingly independent points. The circular cores scattered across the surface do not represent isolated elements, but centers of energy in constant dialogue with one another. The gestural mark that connects them becomes a metaphor for an invisible network that traverses space and time, suggesting the idea that every event, every thought, and every form of life are part of the same universal structure. The painting arises from overlays of pigments, resins, and material interventions that build a vibrant surface rich in memory. The pinkish, ochre, and purplish tones emerge and disappear under the black signs, creating a depth that invites the observer to a slow and contemplative reading. Matter is not mere support, but an integral part of the artist’s expressive language. Trained at the Albertina Academy in Turin, Castagna has spent decades developing a research that blends European Informalism, Abstract Expressionism, and a personal reflection on the relationship between energy, consciousness, and matter. In The Invisible Bridge the painterly gesture assumes a symbolic dimension: it does not describe, but reveals. It does not tell what we see, but what we perceive intuitively and which often remains hidden beyond the threshold of the visible. The work belongs to the cycle “Through the Circle,” in which the circle becomes a symbol of origin, connection, and transformation. Here the bridge is not an architectural element, but an invisible force that unites distant presences into a single field of energy and meaning.
