The Escape of the Heart                                                                    

 

Colors and form

don’t adhere

to the escape

of the heart

 

There isn’t form,

composition

or harmony,

 

that capture

the heart’s movement,

it dart away,

like crazy splinters

 

The violent impulse,

irrepressible

impulse of the heart

that separates,

abandons me

and escapes,

leaving no ties,

to you.

 

and I,

broken hermaphrodite

remain here

with only single,

bloody half

of a spherical  head  

which long before

belonged to me,

and, most of all,

without heart.

Exceptional Italian artist-poet Tiziana Pantaleoni paintings and poems are dark and intense, and heavily influenced by her passionate interest in philosophy and Jungian psychology.

Critical text (by Enzo Fabiani in Premio Arte 2003 Giorgio Mondadori Editore)

The first impression may recall the research of a sort of “geometrical truth” by means of a severe construction of shapes:each of them is executed with a refined decorative technique. But soon we note that the rhythmical and limpid “vision” is, thanks to and beyond her painting and colouristic skill, animated by something poetically alive, philosophically musical. To these “signs” and “messages” we should add the verses which the artist uses to decorate and frame everything , and here is the charm.

 

Creative Statement 

by Tiziana Pantaleoni

 

Descent in the Psyche’s underwood. The archetypal language of the emotions.

 

My art work originates from philosophical need to explore psyche’s most deep essence which, like Jung analytical psychology means, belongs to all humanity and eludes “ space-time” laws.

 

The emotions span the “constellation” of the archetypal forms and have become a pictorical language. So, through artistic production, I gain access to the ”beyond the sky’s” metaphysical dimension.

 

Then, painting is my only instrument to philosophize.

 

Archetypal figure which often appears in my picture is “hermaphrodite”. In fact Jung think in every culture and civilization the “androgyne” is strongest image able to attract “psican libido” eg. Aztecan (Dual God), Hinduism (male and female in Shiva), Plato (the myth of androgyne).

 

By stylistic viewpoint the choice of work on relief and using clay are necessary for portray human psyche’s complexity.
