   In this composition, the different shades of green emerge with strength and delicacy, creating a sensation of fluid and serene movement. The green, in its various shades, interrelates with a disturbing subtlety. The aqua green, which slides lightly, intertwines with the darker green, which seems to root the composition, providing depth and a silent contrast. In this softly nuanced transition, the greens embrace and blur, flowing into each other with great harmony.
The light grey, present in the interstices between the greens, plays a vital role in this work. It is the subtle host that welcomes and softens the more vibrant tones, creating an atmosphere of serenity and calm. The grey not only acts as a bridge between the different greens, but as a base that nests, that welcomes, allowing the shades of green to develop in a delicate way. This grey seems to dissolve in the work, giving space to the fluidity of the colours that unfold on it.
A light, almost imperceptible touch of red introduces a delicate interruption in this chromatic landscape. Red, in its fragility, is perceived as a distant glow, a spark that breaks into the serenity of green and grey, providing a subtle vibration that adds emotion to the painting without breaking its tranquillity. This touch of red, like a small flower growing on the edge of a river, adds a vibration of contained energy, a call for attention that, in its moderation, elevates the whole without disturbing its peace.
The painting is a refuge of calm and dynamism, a space where colours flow naturally, in a chromatic dance, subtle and full.
