CON-SCIENCE OF THE MATTER
Rinaldo Novali Academy Professor of Painting Accademia Belle Arti

Why these lines? Simply to add to an effort involving several people who think very highly of you.
In the Academy, your research produced a worthy outcome in your very personal techniques, and then in the critical analysis of language. Day after day your artwork has developed into autonomous 'poetics", very relevant to the meanings examined.
Shapeless and shaped form, where colours naturally highlight the energy of the matter.
These words make me think of a sort of "archaeology of sight", linguistic references that touch but are not limited to the wider ‘informal art’ phenomenon, which is still lively in Bologna these days and still attracts the younger artists.
It’s something that perhaps goes ‘beyond’, quite rightly as it is set in the 21 st century.
The birth of artwork is intertwined with its conception: a magic moment where ‘another’ time meets the artist’s space.
Your awareness of physics leads you to investigate the nature of materials, in order to strip them bare and to look for things nature hides from our sight. The artist, Daniela Domenichini, freezes her eye to observe the earth’s micro-shapes and to be able to construct an alphabet recognizable by man’s sight.
The earth: celebrated by contemporary and past artists, as a time-honoured and generous source of inspiration, simple and complex at the same time and always different.
Just like Art shows the mother earth in infinite ways, your work, Daniela, shows a singular vision of earth: matter, energy, light and colour create a powerful idea of it. Food for our spirit and our material life, where the appearance of the artist-human being leaves behind traces that cannot but be the product of art.
