Filippi’s aesthetic research develops on bodily objectivity in a process of inner knowledge of the human body as a measure of space and time.
It is a vital art that starts from the earth and yearns for the sky. From the essential and compositional graphic sign we arrive at the use of color, often diluted in monochrome drafts to enhance the protagonist of the figures; it is an earthy chromatism that is enriched with the addition of more materials to thicken the personality of these mannequins.
Solemn shapes are not something autonomously defined but their power manifests itself thanks to the empty shape that surrounds them. They cover themselves with a dynamic void, like a cavity ready and available to welcome and pour.
The violent signs and the dripped colors interpret the heroic and vital sense of man, bodies or heads described and then erased in a condensate full of pain-torn matter. The canvases, or the wood, become an arena, the place of the struggle between the physical limit of the body and the immaterial lightness of dreams.
The figure, hidden between signs and color, stays in front of the painting and finally appears with a slow rhythm. This figure is the human.
Spirit and soul, the longing for the trespassing of thought, without limits.
