THE ARTWORK
In this mixed-material screenprint by Giovanna Cattaneo, a green and yellow flower rises above white and blue forms against a red and orange background. The narrow vertical format concentrates movement, transforming a few elements into a lively, immediate chromatic presence.
The surface alternates textures, small marks and more compact fields, making the richness of its treatment perceptible. The eye can follow the stem towards the bloom or dwell on relationships between colours. The image retains an open figurative simplicity, in which the floral motif becomes an opportunity for rhythm, contrast and invention.
