September 1, 2026
(6th painting in the series “Detachment & Autonomy”)

The black dot is me.

Above me, my mark—the language I have built over time—condenses into a compact, dominant mass that seems unable to restrain itself and begins to drip downward.

Between that matter and me, however, there remains a distance. The drips traverse space, some reach the edge of the canvas, but none reach me. Only one line reaches me: it is red.

At first glance it might seem like a drip like all the others, but it is not. While everything else falls, that line unites. It is the only element that traverses the distance entirely and maintains contact between me and the mass from which I detached.

Detachment exists, but is not absolute. A thin line remains: the only bond.

BIO:

I am Pietro Fight, an Italian visual artist based in Milan. My research centers on the writing of gesture: an abstract language made of signs, circles, fills and empties that repeat and transform from one work to another. Through my paintings I try to tell my way of seeing life and my artistic journey, working on the relationship between density and breath, weight and space. Each work is unique and arises from a manual process of rhythm, repetition and ever-changing variations.
