"Like veiled relics of our past, the essence of Anide's work seems to hide like ghosts behind the curtain of our consciousness."
The contemplation of Anide's paintings confronts us with a mystery that arouses our curiosity and silently demands an exploratory immersion. Inspired by mythology, Jungian psychology, ancient philosophy, the wilderness and contemporary poetry, his visual language unfolds as a correspondence between the abstract and the figurative, the visible and the invisible, dream and reality. These ethereal narratives evoke distant memories, gradually excavating an intangible sphere in which our imagination can freely unfold.
These are not merely images; rather thee vaguely discernible human forms, chimeras, and fragmented landscapes that blend into these ephemeral environments face us as multilayered, symbolically charged metaphors, emerging from the depths of the human psyche and forming the core of a profound transmutation.
Our memories, emotions, and unconscious patterns animate these sceneries, revealing a world whose narratives unravel beyond the semantic limits of our language. Like a surrealist play, Anide’s imagery induces a gentle state of hypnotic interpretation. Through a dance of suggestion, contemplating his paintings becomes an intimate reverie in which we lose ourselves, discovering new perspectives on our identity and place in the world. "
