In Francisco Cintolesi’s work, the idea of ​​reality is objected, making it incomplete or fractured. With this, he tries to subtract some degree of certainty in order to install a question that will never be answered. This intentionally provoked anxiety results in uncomfortable beauty. The goal is to isolate the circumstances that give time its identity, by being thorough in one aspect, while breaking the language in others. This is his visual strategy. The artists takes topics from his own space and time. He uses photographs as a first approach and then the painting decides what is relevant and what is trivial. His technique is based in oil. Color is his language. He aims to reach the maximum potential from each color as if they would ask him to highlight them.
