Lacrime bianche
Lacrime Bianche (White Tears) brings Remoi’s One Color Collection to a peak of silent lyricism and extreme minimalism. Here, the monochrome is not merely an aesthetic choice but a veil of purity that attempts to cover and, at the same time, reveal a profound and crystallized sorrow.
The artwork is one of melancholy and rarefied elegance. The canvas is entirely enveloped in a chalky white, applied with broad, textural brushstrokes that create a tormented surface, resembling a snow-covered expanse or ancient plaster marked by time. Within this chromatic "absence," the three-dimensional elements emerge like frozen fragments of memory.
A stylized white figure stands on the right side, almost merging with the background, while small spherical and linear inserts punctuate the composition like tears that have lost their fluidity to become solid matter. The white-on-white choice transforms weeping into a spiritual act, stripped of the violence of color but charged with a vibrant tension. The white frame coordinates the entire vision, removing any boundary between the work and its surroundings, forcing the viewer to seek details in the shadows and reliefs of the material. Lacrime Bianche is a portrait of pain turning into light—a sadness that, once washed of all impurities, becomes whiteness and peace.
