For the artist, the debate over the validity of painting in contemporary art loses relevance in the face of its deep roots as a cultural practice. From this perspective, this series addresses issues beyond the realm of art. The artist applied the 14 tonal scales of Naples Yellow that were discovered during the creation of the project to various wooden figures. These tones, from multiple brands and sources, when placed next to each other, not only contrast in quality but also juxtapose the commercial interpretations of a color with a long cultural history.

Naples Yellow was used as a mineral pigment long before the Renaissance. However, due to its toxicity, the color has been produced artificially since that period. Since then, it has undergone radical transformations, such as the introduction of oil paint in tubes and the color revolution brought about by industry in the 20th century.

As an additional layer, the figures have been placed near a window to be affected by variations in lighting, thus drawing attention to the instability of the conditions of experience.

Painting is not an eternal, unchanging art: it is only the behavior of materials and the place from which we observe that cause it to transform before us at every moment.
