Mixed tecnique on canvas
There is an innate friction in all of our lives. The eternal conflict between internal wants and external conditions. Between energies, whichever they may be, that profuse to achieve something and the adversities that prevent us from achieving them.
It is intrinsic to the human being, it is what we all experience. A primordial experience that unites each and every individual. Franza's works does not represent this. It is this in its very being.
Each painting is a dance stretched between the artist's intentions to reach a goal and the environmental conditions that work and react simultaneously on the canvas. Together yet often antagonistic.
Franza places a liquid on the canvas, then during the day slowly adds pigments, then removes them, and for an entire day from morning to sunset, she moves the liquid causing it to react with the sun, the wind and the environment. It is a slight movement of a few millimetres at a time that takes place for hours and hours and which tries to mediate the weather conditions. This is fundamental: she does not prepare the canvas and simply exposes it to the environment, she dialogues with it, intervenes if necessary, she chases it, anticipates it, slows it down. Constantly.
