6218 Kelvin
"I had left the visible, physical blue at the door, outside, in the street. The real blue was within, the blue of the depth of space, the blue of my realm, our realm!...the immaterialization of blue, the colored space that you can't see but with which you are permeated."
Yves Klein (1928-1962) – Sorbonne – 1959
6218 K, where K stands for Kelvin, is the "temperature" of the IKB - International Klein Blue, in this case observed by heating a metal or as we can observe from the combustion of a star, in the moment when the highest temperatures are reached.

With his "leads", Umberto Mariani transcends and transforms lead into a liquid-shaped cloth, coloring it with intense pigments that increase its depth.
Is this perhaps the true transformation? The achievement of a spiritual "gold", here well represented by the intense blue that irresistibly attracts us.

The man and the seagull, portrayed in two small screens, seem to have emerged from another dimension, emphasized by the hole drawn on the canvas.
The sea and the sky are the protagonists here in a cosmic sense, a blue that envelops and contains everything.

As soon as I landed I went to my smelter and we worked, trying different types of oxides, until we found one that gave me the same feeling.
The title reminds us that the emotion that color arouses in us is a gift, in this case from Neptune."

The shape in the upper left corner resembles a U, signifying the sound that Blue makes when pronounced.
This work continues the search for archetypes of forms, colors, sounds and ideas, which Anna Pennati has been elaborating for many years with increasingly exciting results.

It can be observed in two senses: as patches of land seen from space or as distant galaxies silhouetted in the deep universe.

"the preciousness of subtracted time" - 2021

What is so special about blue? It's a color that transcends, takes us to the immaterial, to the spiritual. It leads us to meditate, to look beyond the surface, to imagine and discover new worlds.
Sky and sea, two worlds that are alien to us, in which we participate, we cross them, but in which we cannot survive.
We are drawn towards the infinite, the unknown, until we re-enter our unconscious, in a continuous spiral.
A refreshing freshness then, which calms our fiery thoughts, making us more conscious and able to create ideas, which the geometry of the forms express in an unequivocal orthogonal way.

It shows us an evolutionary path towards the immaterial, the true wealth that we can find in us, microcosmic beings that can however contain the indefinable infinite.

A window to the unknown, to the ideal plane.
A monolith of stone from outer space, revealing its intense blue that transports us to an incredibly fascinating spiritual world.
Almost a "cult" object then, on which to meditate, with which to find ourselves.
