| Summary: | This work intends to analyze the presence and evolution of the oriental calligraphic line in the work of Domenec Cobella, specifically, of his landscape paintings carried out between 2003 and 2012 (phases Espirito Essencial and Espirito Zen).From 2003, with the beginning of the Essential Spirit stage (2003-2006), the landscape became the main theme in this artist's pictorial work. In the works developed during this period, there is an increasing synthesis of the elements that make up the picture, as well as the beginning of the application of the line as a modeling element between sign and meaning, in a purified epitome of the elements it composes. This debugging is taken to the extreme in the next phase, entitled Espirito Zen (2007-2012), where there is a link in the search for the essence of the elements to be represented, in a kind of formal synthesis of the external principles of the landscape. The line, or the line, becomes the material that leads to the union between sign and signifier, between painting and calligraphy, between form and stain, an idea shared by the Principle of the Unique Brushwork of Shitao. |
