This intaglio fine art print, titled Sindonica I, weaves a narrative that stretches back in time. Originating from a flattened sardine tin found on the roads of the "Mar de Castiglia" (Sea of Castilla) amidst the pine expanse above Segovia (Spain), it found its way into the hands of Fernando Texidor, a Spanish abstract artist and sculptor. Fernando, a mentor, and dear friend, closed his eyes for the last time this year. Upon returning to his studio this summer to organise his creations, I discovered this objet-trouvé. Scattering Fernando's ashes on the surface of the sea in Nerja (Spain), I brought not only the object but also the lesson on chaos and impermanence that he imparted, now embodied in Sindonica I. On wet cotton Hahnemühle paper, the corrugated metal imprinted ink in peaks and valleys across five copies, symbolising the months since Fernando's farewell. Art becomes a bridge, perpetuating memories, friendship and a shared passion for the abstract.

Fabio Zanino (Turin, Italy 1978) investigates the details that bring us to the universal in an ongoing synecdoche. Like a magnifying glass, he captures elements from everyday life transforming them into images that stand alone in their aesthetics and meaning, elevating the marginal into the worthy. By observing the effects of time on matter, the traces of human action and the processes of dissolution, Zanino isolates things from their original contexts. By assigning them a new dimension, he investigates the origins of abstract artistic inspiration. Decostruzioni was born from this research. Word and form abandon their intended purpose and are turned into an aesthetic of becoming. So “Do Not Enter,” “Danger” and other road or warning signs, are broken up into minimal units and compose themselves into sculpture, following the simple framework: objet trouvé – deconstruction – assemblage. The work of subtraction reaches its essence by using cuts that, as the only gestural intervention, provide a new identity, a different order and alchemy. Estrangement, upon closer inspection, is the sense of a reality revealed.
