Vertical abstract painting. A vast crimson red color field with visible brushstrokes. The surface is marked by several thin white, slightly curved lines. Four small, more intense and defined red rectangles are distributed on the canvas, which leans against a pillar in a rustic workshop with a grid-paned window.
“STRATA IV — DECLIVIS” by Maurizio Valch features a deep crimson field crossed by incisions and punctuated by red blocks. This abstraction explores material and visual rhythm within a contained territory.

STRATA IV — DECLIVIS en un mockup de interior

White incised lines traverse the vast crimson field of "STRATA IV — DECLIVIS", disrupting its uniformity with their own rhythm. Maurizio Valch constructs this work in acrylic and oil on canvas, revealing the pictorial matter in superimposed layers. The fine and precise incisions create a relief that goes beyond two-dimensionality. Four rectangular blocks of a more intense red anchor the composition, functioning as territorial divisions or monoliths within a stratified space. This piece establishes a tension between the stillness of the color field and the subtle movement of the marks. The deep and resonant crimson acts as a territory inhabited by the traces of the process and the emergence of elemental forms. The work invites sober contemplation on memory and the material surface.
