CUSTODES — Context Study
In CUSTODES, Maurizio Valch establishes a stark visual contrast between a luminous, expansive orange field and dark, monolithic forms that emerge from the composition's base. This vertical artwork conveys an upward tension through angular structures in shades of green, dark blue, and black, projecting towards a horizontal upper band of gray and black. A deep crimson red anchors the lower section, where subtle white linear incisions suggest a demarcation or pathway across the surface. The materiality of acrylic and oil is evident in the layered glazes that build the color fields and imbue the forms with presence. The work's almost architectural perspective invites a reading of space and territory, where ambient light enhances the depth and structural character of these silent presences.
