L’ABBRACCIO

L_Abbraccio_Antonio_Cersosimo_Arte_web

An extreme gesture of holding, encircling and pleading, driven by the fear of detachment and losing one’s other half. The work depicts transparent bodies in an almost pleading bond, embodying a morbid thought and not necessarily a physical, concrete gesture.
One restrains by touching, almost without being aware of it.

The one who embraces offers an almost possessive love, while the one who receives it seems at times indifferent, not even deigning the other a glance. This shows that in life it is sometimes necessary to teach how to love, without surrendering, with an embrace that gently draws one in.

The work was exhibited at Art Innsbruck 2004 and Europ’Art Genève 2004.
