"GROUNDZERO" is an abstract artwork created in 2019 by Italian artist Sergio Mario Illuminato. The piece features a striking contrast between a deep red background and a single, irregularly shaped patch of gold leaf. This minimalistic approach allows for an intense focus on the visual interplay of color and texture, leaving the interpretation open to individual viewers. The title, "GROUNDZERO," suggests a contemplation on a site of profound impact and transformation, echoing the visual sense of a sudden, powerful burst of light against a somber background.
