Title: Break through
Year: 2023

The selected blue, created around 2,200 BC. in ancient Egypt, it was the first color pigment to be produced synthetically, as it is the result of the mixture of a sand-ground limestone and a copper-containing mineral.Also known as Berliner Blau, Prussian blue was accidentally discovered by the German dyer Johann Jacob Diesbach, who was actually working on creating a new type of red. A color associated with the sky and the sea, but also with deeper feelings and ideals, such as freedom, intuition, imagination, inspiration, sensitivity, depth, wisdom and emotional stability. The same ones that we find in the art of Valentina Saric, who through her abstract forms communicates a profound interiority. In this work the artist is looking for a chromatic and formal balance, or a universal balance and the colors are arranged in such a way as to suggest that the artist has found what she was looking for. A composition with perfectly balanced colors that gives rise to a perfectly empathic painting both in terms of shapes and in terms of color. The choice of using primary colors is to be understood as a very precise spiritual symbology; yellow is pure solar energy, while blue is the symbolic color of spirituality.
