PIERO  SCANDURA

Piero Scandura's works are an invitation to discover a space that could be defined as "the artist's room", different from the studio in which he paints his works. It is a place for ideas where dreams, thoughts, and visions come together with furniture and other objects to find their place. They are like screens on which images flow between them without a logical link – what does a stylish, comfortable armchair have in common with a sailboat model? – yet they are secretly in dialogue with each other. This visual artifice only seems to recall surrealist paintings because Scandura has set up a subtler, more cerebral mechanism that disregards the observer's visual conventions to produce a new, more in-depth understanding of the painted image. Together, these rooms, replicated in several different colors with an equal number of objects – armchairs, tables, lamps, vases with flowers – make up a tautology or discourse in which, by repeating the same subject, is transformed into an ambiguous, mysterious concept, open to multiple interpretations. In other words, Scandura upends the principle of identity by which a room is a room. Every expression is equivalent to itself, reminding us that things can have many more meanings than those commonly attributed to them. Consequently, the more we observe these rooms, the more we realize that they are different from what they seem: a seascape, a flower garden, an abstract composition of geometric shapes. A room is not just a room, but anything the artist's – or our – imagination wishes to see, transcending the limits of a stereotypical vision.
