The black light in Painting.
Black light…
Often I prefer No light at all and I find my self forgotten in the silence of black. No color at all, darkness, no light at all. Silence is there in the darkness and light is there, in the darkness light comes out. Mystery and hidden secrets are in the black. I call it “black light”in painting…
Because it is so, inside the black, inside the dark, you can find the the light, you can find the way for the light. The light is always there, the white color is always there. But only if you close your eyes, only in the darkness you can see it, you can recognize it and follow it.
Black the color of meditation.To meditate everything needs to be black and dark. Black the color of the healing, the color of a healer. So much I love Black.!!!! Black symbolize the female Energy as White symbolize the male Energy, so we have the yin/yang symbol. Black is the nothingness. But not really, because black likes to be something that you can dessappear in it…this is the magic of black..Oh ! How many words I can speak about black color, black light. With black cure is possible, dark is the place of recovering and grow, a place of you to born again. Death is dark, but death is a new birth. You have to die in order to be born again. In whatever you want to be New and born again, you have first to die. To let it go! And this happen only in dark, in black.
Black in painting, when I paint with Black color, I feel like Black and White is fighting who is going to have the control, the commend on the art work. It is like two strong and great powers the moment of painting controls me and tell me what to do. It is like to Great Gods they fight, but not a real fight for me, because for me it is more like a game. But they fight.
Is like a father and the son fight for power. As the light fight the dark, but the light is the child of the dark, it is so. White the child of the black, both with the same power they start a fight on my canvas, how much I love this fight. I go into this and I paint…
