“When words can no longer sing, colors learn to speak in silence.”
Within the shadows the verb of nothingness is born,
and in silent lines the song of color speaks;
form writes an intimate murmur
upon the dark and sleepless canvas.
Poetry walks blinded,
searching for its radiance among silences,
while painting preserves the clamor
of a throat eternally wounded.
Each figure floats like a verse,
suspended within a geometric dream,
like an ancient and universal language.
Royal blue proclaims the electric,
and fuchsia, like a scattered petal,
burns within an abstract and symmetrical sky.
There is no voice within the silent pigment,
yet a living cry exists in every stroke;
art embraces man within its arms
through a mystical and beautiful language.
Thus the work remains silent and yet recites,
for color too knows how to write;
and though the mouth may not be able to speak,
light upon shadow resurrects itself.
