 |
The Recollection 1980.03 100 x 80, oil on canvas |
The image of a lost maiden has become, in the recollection, as empty, as, alas, a fragile shell which has broken; an unrealistic creature, made out of dreams and mystery. Click detail |

The Spring 1980.08 70 x 80, oil on canvas |
A nearby fountain suggested an image for the
spring: the head of the young lady, who draws water from it, becomes an
ewer (broken since, we must not forget this, it represents a broken love),
and an arm the spring’s water spout. This is typical of Mazzucconi: to blend all aspects together, be it in painting or architecture, in a totalling approach. See other examples: The Artist 1989.01 Cultural Centre St-Germain-en-Laye |

Sophia (Kundalini) 1980.08.10 100 x 80, oil on canvas |
Is the sorrowful soul on the way to wisdom?
The rhythmic design of her curls, as well as the one of her tears, seems
to show the patterns of a secret path… The breath of the Spirit permeates
her. Above and beyond the painful wound, the Self stands as a witness and
an ideal fulfilment. |
