“I am the rest between two notes, which are somehow always in discord because Death’s note wants to climb over —
but in the dark interval, reconciled, they stay there trembling. And the song goes on, beautiful.”
R.M. Rilke
The first real series to be structured starting in 2013, with alternate periods and undergoing various transformations over time it is still occurring. Born as a desire to create a dialogue between musical and painting formal values, its name is however connected to the urgency and the need to paint during those early years, when the little time available often relegated the painting activity to night hours. The Dyssomnia collection is now curated by the Eye Contemporary Art Gallery and in recent years has seen a solo exhibition in Hong Kong in 2019 and the publishing of two catalogs.
