CORINTI 2007

Carles Delclaux Is created "CORINTI," a large canvas where geometry meets the ethereal qualities of light. Here, bands of color arch across the composition. Like the rainbow after the storm, it is a symbol of hope and promise. Since ancient times, rainbows have appeared in mythology as a bridge between worlds, a divine messenger. Consider the use of light as a divine element. Notice how the streaks of light cut through the upper portion of the image. We might see the evolution of similar visual representations throughout history, such as the sunburst motif from the Baroque period. These 'divine lights' were incorporated into various forms of art and architecture to evoke feelings of awe. There is a deep psychological connection in how these symbols continue to resonate. These recurring motifs trigger memories and stir emotions. We are all, in essence, walking encyclopedias of cultural memory, connecting the present to the echoes of the past.
