Emerson<\/em><\/p>\n<p>As Emerson states, a man\u2019s life is a circle. We are immersed in circularity, an unceasing movement in which all things take part.<\/p>\n<p>Concentric circles, circular nature.<\/p>\n<p>God is also circular with \u201cthe centre everywhere and the circumference nowhere\u201d, as Saint Augustine said.<\/p>\n<p>Man participates in such circularity first of all with the workings of his own mind. Unfathomable mechanisms, locking and overlapping, with the prevailing shape of a circle which connects and activates.<\/p>\n<p>Man\u2019s life is the overlapping of concentric circles.<\/p>\n<p>Of this primary and original form, the driving force of the universe, P.H. Wert\u2019s works are almost spontaneously born: circularities that intertwine, loom over or simply brush against each other, retracing and recreating the eternal becoming that does not incessantly thrust itself forward, but comes back to itself, in the centre that is the beginning and the end.<\/p>\n<p>It is the transcendental and divine nature, but also human kind\u2019s industriousness: mechanisms like workings constructed by man, from the first rudimentary farming tools to the most modern industrial machines.<br \/>\nIn this respect, Wert\u2019s creations reflect the territory in which they were born: hard-working Emilia Romagna, which bears witness to the objectification of these archetypes through man\u2019s ingenuity as a constructor. Mechanical and motor realities thus become tangible, a technical knowledge that recreates the movement of the universe.<br \/>\nA dream drives man\u2019s hand in a hide and seek game, one of parallel and interlacing lines wherefrom the driving force is issued, so that the movement becomes perpetual and unrelenting.<br \/>\nMachines are the objectification of our thought, nature\u2019s mirror with all its power.<br \/>\nAcrylic and oil on canvas is the technique used to make these works. Light and shadows, overlaps and concealments spring up almost spontaneously, emerging from a universal thought. Like enlightenment coming out with patience: from the background the first lines are drawn with watercolour pencils, the acrylic colour is then spread and the first filled-in figures are created. But it is the oil colour that puts the finishing touches with the technique of the glazing that perfects the interplay of tones accomplishing the shapes.<br \/>\nThe thought of the shapes comes afterwards, foremost are the emotions which guide the artist\u2019s hand. Art becomes technique, helping emerge more clearly what the unconscious had let out of the innermost self.<br \/>\nThe work will then reach full achievement in the encounter with the viewer: from the traces provided for rationality, one slowly goes back to the maze of his\/her innermost self, reliving the same arcane emotions shapes.<br \/>\nThe thought of the shapes comes afterwards, foremost are the emotions which guide the artist\u2019s hand.
