Angelo Cagnone

Socchiuso (Ajar)

Short Review

In this work Angelo Cagnone lays out on the canvas a black and dense oil crossed by thin wavy white lines. Centrally one band separates the picture in two. At the top of this band Angelo Cagnone shows a photo of a part of the face that includes an inquiring eye that observes us. The eye peers into our thoughts or simply observes what we do. The gaze is fixed and insistent, almost disturbing, we feel intimidated and uncomfortable. Better to think about ourselves and our daily life which is perhaps what Angelo Cagnone wants to suggest.
