Marco Miglio - Review

Due to his sound education (he has always been fascinated by great and irripetible lesson of the impressionists with whom he has shared what we could define"the feeling of transscience"), he has attended the "Casa Romana" school of Master Carlo Marcantonio.

His landscape on one side and his floreal foregrounds on the other, these last ones of sorrowful and sensual lyricism are never expression of an external reality but authentic pages of a suadente inner diary.

Each painting has intimist connotations most of all for its array of colours but also for the essentialism through which he exposes on canvas certain blue-green apparitions. I also see in his paintings a dreaming and folk tale metaphysical atmosphere as this good artist through delicate lyric accents successfully expresses the silence that becomes lent entity revived to our days.

Thanks to this silence from the waved and caressing profile is placed in being a callback to the truthe "altra" that after all is the reign of the light and dream but most of all the reign of spirit. I think that cartain works, above all the floreal ones mention before, are works of high spirituality and spiritualizing gothic painting. The fuscination of the spirit shown in his paintings reflects not only the refinement of his spirit bau also the leson of his Master to who goes an affectionate and rferring memory.

At the moment only in the paintings and dreams of Marco Miglio grow these flowers, children of stars that nobody sees anymore because veiled from smoke and contrasted by brazenly bright light . However in the nigth rebuilt by the painter , they become new flowers, shining of theirs own light. The light our artist wants to give them. The technique used in suc works is based on mixing coloured pigments with only paint thet evidences effects, as to recall a dreamt moon fallenin a field. Perhaps this has been more spontaneous than intentional but only who knows marco Miglio well can assert. The Curtural preparation of the painter is of such refinement that undoubtedly his poetics is built on such solid foundations of sure result: very his art comes to render us less hostile this world that confuses industrial and financial vehemence with the measure of human civilization.

The search of Marco Miglio

Marco Miglio appears as an untiring traveller in perpetually wandering along the winding path of memory that leads from the daily to the most idden, intimate spirituality and his march, step by step, brings continuous acquaintance, meticolous reflection, accurate analysis, turned and materialized into the architectures of word and image. During the travel all is revelation and ustonishment: the small things of the living and existing reveal the great emotions, the smothred pains, forgotten melancholy, the wonder of a discovery, the fascination approach to a metaphysical time past, present, future, indistinct. That step by step, draws up to a catches a mysterious, unknown place but immediately becomes unapproachable. Miglio, as careful traveller of the existence, documents all and his notes on this trip are like haleidoscopes of inner spirituality, proposed in a twofold oral and visual interpretation of human experience. His solitary and personal act is to see the world through an infinitesimal survey. accurate and all field tht soins two languages naturally distant, often, unapproachable but her put together with skill and sensuativity made attractive and contrasting but concordant.Word and image two commons terms, spirituality and technology two amazing dimensions, above all if cohabiting today in a world where spirituality is always more and more distant and technology runs fast threatening all to today.

It his here that Miglio's operation shows all its importance. The use of the word in all its lyrics and evocative aspect and digital image in its technological aspect avoiding the collision and overwhelming of one to the damage to the other. His works though even if merges various techniques is to consider globally, as one, a unitary system generated by the will to travel in the spirit, trying to look for what has been, has vanished and what has developed. Soffio Vitale - Pensoeri e Immagini dall'Anima- is poems, reports, ancestral rappresentation, embryonic chromatism of memory automatism, endless subconsious vortices. Alienation, Logoff, Metamorphosis, Firewall, Filaments of Spirit, the Life in the Gorgo, Sine Die, DisUnione, the tunnel series: are only some of the titles in Soffio Vitale that alone introduce to the restlessness of human experience, allude to uncommunicability, to paradoxes of life, to "Male di Vivere" montaliano, to the unexperienced experience of the dead, to the ineffabile contemplation of immutability an variety of things."Filtri i dialoghi sai già dove arrivare. / Ti nascondi dietro te stesso, difficile riflettersi. / Sdoppiarsi, triplicarsi, moltiplicarsi. / Bloccare le entrate. / Esisti con la tua esiguità." Oppure "Espletare le funzioni essenziali e nutrirti ancora. Questo il tuo fare. / Profumarti d'essenze delle tue deiezioni / per finire nella forma informe / rinvenendo un abbozzo della tua figura." An ironic bitterness delineates articulate and poignant images of thoughts. They are tormented pictures, they are pieces of life cut and pasted on paper in a collage of personal and universal feelings.

Sometimes words draw images, others relate situations, atmospheres, stories of the spirit, always fast, confident but concurring to evidence a feeling that gushes from any element that encloses traces of daily humanity.

Every think has a role and a place and Miglio penetrates inside highlighting its evocative power, as if gestures and things have assumed ritual meanings able to keep secrets and hold the symbols of a whole life.

The digital works, always eloquently titled, reveal a magmatic, dense, full-bodied consistency as if their carrying out demanded a stratification of inner experience. The image show a physical vitality, as if they are concretely able to symbolize physiological apparatuses of the spirit. "Filamenti d'Anima" attracts us to a mysterious agglomerate, in inner weaving made of spiritual chromatism that encloses secret and symbolic messages. "Il Tunnel" and "The Incidente" show clamor and dramatc tension illustrating the unillustratable, areunequivocal evidence of a drama that only in its rievocation has a meaning of semantic communication. They show physical and mental experience, its sensation that gets shape, colour, density and voice even if silent but sonorous. "Soffio Vitale" is the synthesis of the energy that moves Miglio in his creations, it's the casket of the essence of written and digital works. Miglio knows well that "Soffio Vitale" is a personal and claring experiment in which we can see the attempt, very succesful, to join lirism and technology, interiority and computer science, feeling and byte. He knows well to be a protagonist of this uncertain and undefinable time, in which the humanistic dimension is overwhelmed by the technological dimension.

But Miglio knows that digital work needs the uniqueness of a personal "soffio vitale" to be communicative and vibrate independently.
