Color that becomes matter, words that become images, emotions that become signs and shapes: this is the power and magic of art, in all its forms. Art leads us to always look towards new worlds, to go further and to look at the world with always new eyes. In his works the artist Marco Cardinali pushes himself and us beyond our limit through the expressive form of abstract art. In fact, according to the artist, abstract art allows us to express the concept of horizon, of a limit to overcome, to push us to discover new emotions. Approaching the end of something inevitably leads us to push ourselves towards the discovery of something new, unexpected, which may initially be frightening, but which certainly stimulates new emotions in us. It is precisely these new, unprecedented, often unexpected emotions that we are confronted with when observing Marco's works. The works presented here are an example of the many facets of his art. For the artist, poetry is also a very powerful means of expression that opens the way to new visions and in the work Forze ascensionali (Gerardo Dottori,
1919) he puts these two overwhelming artistic forms into dialogue. In this work, the words of the poem entitled Fore ascensional by Gerardo Dottori come to life through the shapes, colors and different materials of the artist's hand, not representing the images that these words evoke in the mind, but the emotions they arouse and the moods they cause. Then, in the work No Pressure, No Diamonds the fulcrum of the work is the message itself, around which a whole world of symbols, colours, movement and energy is generated. Symbols of everyday life manage to make color and matter vibrate, letting us enter the artist's flow of thoughts. The color takes shape, the words come alive. Finally in The Portal, Marco faces a new beginning, a door to the world that he is imagining, but towards which he wants to lead us, accompany us. In this work the energy and strength of the color combined with the dynamism of the lines and movement is nothing short of overwhelming: we feel sucked right into the center of the work, ready to enter a world that is still unknown, but which inevitably draws to itself and arouses in us a lively irresistible curiosity. We leave behind the frenzy of life to abandon ourselves to something that is there waiting for us. In Marco's works, one of the stylistic traits is that of creating compositions that trigger in the mind of the observer the desire to take a journey through the work, a desire to investigate further, a desire to understand what seems unknown.
