Ilaria Gaccetta
What is your artform/vision?
Art is Creation, in all its forms. Art is the closest thing to the Divine I’m allowed to do.
I can immerse myself in the depths of the Cosmos, swim among the secrets of the oceans
and go back to the sleepless constellations.
I can overcome the layers of substance, trace paths, be a guide and be listening,
I can follow the track, draw a route, looking for Home from the center of the world.
Who are your main artistic inspirations/influences?
My main inspiration is the succession of civilizations on our planet, the desires of men,
the Gods, ancestral memories, the collective consciousness.The energy around us is full of our Essence.
In my drawings there are paths, the Time, the beauty of nature and light.
The guardians of the Earth, the demigods, the wind, the flowers, the perfumes. You can find rooms of thought, cardinal points, elements, mathematics. The vibration of a reflection, the strength of Red and the Blue of the deepest seas. They are journeys through the rhythms of Cosmic time, where different types of energy can be recognized.
What does the phrase “Time is Art” mean to you?
I have always thought of life as a work of Divine art.
In this dimension time has a weight similar to matter, because the constant evolution modifies the Present. The present is the only moment in which we can express ourselves and live, and it is often elusive. We live suspended as in dreams. We build the future by moving Desires. We live straddling the worlds, without knowing How or When. We are born with the courage and joy of the children, ready for the wonderful Work that is Life.
