"The Figurehead" from Pornography by The Cure
“Equinoccio de Otoño” offers a visual reflection on the cycle of nature and our often unconscious connection to it. The autumnal equinox marks a moment of perfect balance between light and dark, between masculine and feminine, an instant when day and night come into balance before the natural world begins its transition into shadow.
In these works, the bright red, which only appears in some details, contrasts with a more muted and desaturated color palette, dominated by shades of gray, black and white. They are works that, while maintaining the artist's typical abstraction, evoke a sense of waiting, reflected in the colors and shapes used.
These colors, which for 108 evoke elegance, comfort and peace, reflect the autumn transition, in which the vibrant tones of summer give way to a softer and more introspective chromatic delicacy.
Black, an indispensable element in 108's work, continues to represent a fundamental pillar, a symbol of introspection and of that less visible and deeper part of the self. For the artist, this is the color that best conveys the strength and impact necessary to express the complexity of his artistic vision.
His artistic creation is intimately linked to music and mathematics, with a creative process reminiscent of musical composition, where each brushstroke is a note, and each painting unfolds like a melody. This blend of music and painting transforms each exhibition into a ritual, a celebration of natural cycles and the seasons, an attempt to bring modern man closer to those primordial forces from which he has unfortunately become estranged.
