About this series
Maurizio Valch's LIMINA series features contemporary abstract paintings, executed in acrylic and oil on canvas. These minimalist and structural artworks explore territories of transit through superimposed planes, horizons, and suspended blocks, building a distinct visual language.
The LIMINA series, a title that evokes the Latin plural for thresholds and places of passage, delves into the construction of intermediate territories through contemporary abstract painting. Maurizio Valch uses acrylic and oil on canvas to create spaces where superimposed planes, enclosures, and stairs suggest communication or access without a fixed destination. Suspended blocks and elemental forms act as signals or presences within compositions that oscillate between stillness and transformation.
Valch's creative process involves the superimposition of color layers, glazes, and incisions that build stratified surfaces. Paint drips and filters, introducing a controlled instability that penetrates the structures, creating a tension between order and fracture. These abstract paintings with layered surfaces and contained horizons do not represent a specific geographical location; rather, they invite contemplation of an interior or imaginary space, where boundaries are explored for their ambiguity and transformative potential.
