Thresholds to Elsewhere

Art as an architecture of experience.

ENTER THE FIELD

First you perceive. Then you recognise.

Every work begins with the encounter between matter, colour, gesture and rhythm.

The surface of the canvas generates tension, depth and movement.

From that moment, the work enters into a relationship with the person looking at it and with the space that receives it.

This is how the perceptual field takes shape.

DISCOVER VIBRISM

VISIONS

Three visual movements. One artistic enquiry.

Work, night and space at the threshold of Visions

VIBRISM · The perceptual field.

Painting generates frequency, pulse and resonance.

The painted field of Vibrism

ARCHETYPES · The dialogue between artwork and identity.

The work manifests recognisable forces.

Each person encounters them through their own sensitivity, memory and identity.

A central presence traversed by archetypal possibilities

METAMORPHOSIS · From physical artwork to expanded experience.

The matrix of the work moves through space, light and movement, opening into new forms of expression.

Metamorphosis: work, energy and transformation in space

THE ANCHOR · The physical artwork remains at the centre of the experience.

THE FIELD · Light, video, digital surfaces and sensory environments extend the presence of the work into space.

THE CONTINUITY · Artist-made objects retain part of the matrix and transform it into a new collectible presence.

OPERA

Every artwork is a perceptual presence as much as a physical one.

A work by Matteo Ferretti as a physical presence in space

Almost thirty years of research move through matter, gesture, colour and inner transformation.

Every work created in the present maintains a living dialogue with the origins of that enquiry.

ENTER OPERA

Canvases that transform the perception of space.

Works by Matteo Ferretti in a historic exhibition space

The artwork introduces a centre of gravity into the environment, guides the eye and alters the perceptual rhythm of the space.

Each person encounters that presence through their own sensitivity, memory and identity.

The space expands.

MATTEO FERRETTI

Almost thirty years of painting. An enquiry in continuous evolution.

Matteo Ferretti in his studio

My research begins with painting and moves through matter, perception, the individual and space.

Over almost thirty years, my work has travelled through galleries, institutions, Biennials, private collections and international projects.

Today, Vibrism, Archetypes and Metamorphosis make that evolution visible.
