Attraversiamo IV, 2025

Ron Mills-Pinyas  

“Attraversiamo IV" is made by applying acrylic paint over a canvas with tarnished metallic pigments. The painting is mounted on a stretcher but could be removed to ship the canvas rolled in a tube, if that's more convenient. Please contact Villa del Arte for more information on framing and shipping options.

This painting is a fusion of abstract expressionism and rich texture, dominated by a radiant gold background that immediately captures attention. The composition features a complex interplay of light and shadow, achieved through layers of translucent pastels and bold, textured strokes. Splashes of vibrant colours, including pinks, blues, and purples, interact dynamically with metallic hues, creating an impression of movement and depth. The use of shimmering materials adds a luminous quality, making the piece feel alive and ever-changing under different lighting. The overall effect is both chaotic and harmonious, evoking a sense of ethereal beauty and boundless imagination, as if capturing a fleeting moment in a dreamscape. “Attraversiamo IV" stands out for its colours and textures. It invites the viewers to lose themselves in its intricate details and emotive resonance.

Ron Mills says: "In an era increasingly mediated by the frictionless digital interface, human consciousness has succumbed to what contemporary neuro-aesthetics define as a "controlled hallucination". To conserve biological energy, our brains project safe, static grids and pre-packaged concepts onto the wildness of being. My current work in the studio is a radical dissent against this flattening of the world".
