CUSTODES — Context Study

Viewed in a space that allows for its horizontal display, Maurizio Valch's work "CUSTODES" emerges as a composition of tensions and blocks. The canvas structure is organized into horizontal bands that frame monolithic forms. A vibrant orange plane dominates the center, flanked by an upper band in grayish tones and a darker one below. From a reddish, earthy base, two large angular shapes—one in deep green, the other black—rise with an almost architectural presence. Between them, segments of blue and red emerge, adding chromatic depth. The surface, crafted with acrylic and oil, reveals subtle layers and fine linear incisions that traverse the color fields, marking divisions and contours that suggest the construction of a territory. The artwork unfolds a contained atmosphere, where the stillness of the planes confronts the verticality of its abstract guardians.
