Antonio Peticov

"Like a magical prism, everything that passes through this Brazilian artist's brush is decomposed into the thousands of colors of the solar spectrum. His is a mathematical and mythical world, where the enthusiasm for celestial mechanics explodes riding a rainbow that delimits sections golden, Moebius rings, “Escherian” paradoxes and logarithmic spirals, which exude the same magic of the feather adornments of the Amazon Indians."

Matteo Guaranacia
