PLACES OF THE SPIRIT (LUOGHI DELLO SPIRITO)
This extraordinary print with transparent colors and shapes of crosses
and ovals, reminds us of the artist’s ethereal essence of belief. The
soaring shape at the top may be a reference to the Dove of the Holy
Spirit. Each viewer will respond in a different way. Perhaps one should
recall that the cathedral of Orveito was constructed because a priest
on pilgrimage witnessed the miraculous appearance of blood on a white
linen altar cloth. Here Valentini hand applies wound-like shapes of
bright colors to each individual print. The band of teal is hand
painted with a stylus piercing the color’s surface. Each is a personal
examination of personal images of faith.
