Dermomagnetism
When I started thinking about Dermomagnetism, I needed new incentives, broadening the field of action of the dermopigmentist: I wanted to be, going against every oxymoronic thought, an “architect of real dreams”. Working for years in dermopigmentation I realized the potential of this fantastic discipline but, ahimè, also of its limits, in particular on two fields of application: the eye contour, in case of universal alopecia, and the reproduction of the nipple, in the reconstruction of the areola / nipple complex in the post-mastectomy. Aesthetic works that tend to a perfect pictorial-visual reality but that cannot give the tactile sense of three-dimensionality!
Paraphrasing and internalizing Ciceronian thought “ad utilitatem vitae omnia consilia factaque nostra dirigenda sunt” (useful life we must converge our thoughts and our works) that has always accompanied me, which has the “human” and universal flavor of get to work to improve the lives of others, I decided to take a step back in time, because when you are a child you are pure and the wonder has a truer, stronger, more energetic taste. And I came back with my mind when, with a dreamy look, I was fascinated by that invisible yet powerful attraction that the magnets emit… here, I had to reproduce that impetus, using opposing poles that, as is known, come together and merge in the world real!
The peculiarities of the dermopigmentist, namely precision, dexterity, aesthetic sense, predisposition to transgression, innate curiosity and in-depth knowledge of the derma, must absolutely be made available not only for aesthetics but also for ethics, that of giving meaning to one’s existence reading smiles in the faces and bodies of others … and that’s how I created Dermomagnetism.
Color is a means of exerting a direct influence on the soul.
Color is a key, the eye is the hammer that hits it,
the soul is the instrument with a thousand strings.
(Vassily Kandinsky)
