&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;column-set gutter=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;column-unit slot=&quot;0&quot;&gt;Esiste un’arte rappresentativa che non si limita a imitare
le cose del mondo, a selezionarne porzioni esteticamente
ritenute già di per sé rilevanti, a trascenderne la contemplazione in una pura idealità di bellezza (astratta, è il caso
di dire) o a piegarne la resa a un sovraccarico espressivo.
Esiste un impulso imitativo profondo, mosso da indefessa
curiosità e rinnovato stupore – il che si può riscontrare,
nei precedenti storici, dall’attitudine al naturale di Leonardo sino a certo naturamortismo empirista olandese del
Seicento –, che ambisce a conoscere il proprio soggetto
nel momento stesso del suo dipanarsi in pratica operativa.
Essa funziona, sul piano estetico, al pari di una disamina
clinica o di un esperimento laboratoriale, ma senza mai
perdere la specificità di una riprova quintessenzialmente
sensoriale. Per l’appunto, estetica. In quest’ultimo caso, la
pratica rappresentativa si fa strumento empirico di presa
attentiva del soggetto isolato e prescelto, nell’auspicio di
dischiuderne, nel trasferimento in immagine, le regole che
sorreggono l’immediato della prima cattura visiva. Nella
traduzione immaginaria e linguistica, lo scienziato cede il
passo all’artista.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Il soggetto di Federico Seppi risiede nella natura e, nella
fattispecie, in una miriade di vedute e micro-saggi dell’ecosistema glaciale. La sua posta poetica primaria &lt;b&gt;si sintonizza con la meraviglia innescata
dall’incontro ora con la maestosità del
ghiacciaio, ora con la sua commovente
fragilità&lt;/b&gt;, inseguita nei risvolti più minuti delle sue componenti. Il senso atmosferico del paesaggio, che addensa la
percezione nebulosa del costante divenire del ciclo delle acque, si interrompe
per lasciare spazio a una micro-analisi
che seziona e focalizza piccole estrazioni, veri e propri carotaggi, dove la visione si eclissa nell’infinitesimale contatto con le unità minime dell’ecosistema.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Se Seppi dunque opera mimeticamente, la sua accezione
del principio dell’“ars imitatur naturam” non si dispiega nella mera riproposizione degli elementi naturali per
come appaiono, ma cerca piuttosto di infondere al suo
processo l’andamento temporale, dinamico e metamorfico
delle leggi di crescita (ed entropia) del suo referente prediletto. Poiché il ghiacciaio è entità viva, scandito dalla
stagionalità del ciclo delle acque (dalla neve al ghiaccio,
dalla fusione all’evaporazione, dalla rugiada all’erosione
geologica) il concetto di una continua trasformazione è
necessariamente motore e tensione ideale della sua ricerca.
Il pendolo oscilla, a tal riguardo, tra un &lt;b&gt;mimetismo rappresentativo&lt;/b&gt; che sfocia, ad esempio, in atmosfera (l’hic et
nunc dell’esperienza irripetibile) o in astrazione (l’individuazione di forme e pattern geometrici, estratti e astratti per sé o in successione) e un &lt;b&gt;mimetismo processuale&lt;/b&gt;. Da un lato l’abbrivio è individuato in quella che si potrebbe definire natura naturata, il fenomeno per come appare al momento, ma esaminato e ingigantito
come osservato attraverso le lenti di un microscopio in
grado di rendere presente, quasi soggetto nel senso proprio
del termine, l’elemento isolato. Dall’altro, una natura naturans, una processualità metamorfica attivata da materia
chimicamente o fenomenologicamente responsiva, sino al
punto-limite di una perdita delle stesse coordinate del referente iniziale.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Il secondo approccio, come anticipato, si delinea in rapporto a due fattispecie. In primo luogo, si tratta di una
processualità intrinseca alle materie pigmentali impiegate, in virtù della reattività chimica dei metalli adagiati su
superfici bidimensionali. Prendono forma paesaggi “vivi”,
il cui cromatismo, dato dalla foglia d’argento o di rame,
muta in risposta al processo di ossidazione, almeno sino
a quando l’artista non decide di consolidarne un esito apponendo una vernice schermante: tale possibilità talvolta
e consapevolmente non viene percorsa e l’opera può continuare il suo corso. Una seconda modalità si lega a un
ricircolo fenomenologico che vede l’opera variabile di una
funzione che ricomprende tra le sue coordinate significanti
elementi esteriori, quali le condizioni di luce, il contesto
di collocazione e il punto di visione. È il caso delle superfici riflettenti – estensioni quadrangolari in rapporto di scala con il corpo umano e talvolta architettonicamente
auto-portanti – che portano nella verticalità della parete un segmento cangiante e sinuoso di ghiaccio ancorato
(formazione che si consolida sotto il fluire dell’acqua) o
di nivalis (alga unicellulare che pigmenta la superficie dei
ghiacci d’alta quota cagionando il fenomeno della “neve
rossa”).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/column-unit&gt;&lt;column-unit slot=&quot;1&quot;&gt;There is a form of representational art that does not merely imitate the things of the world, nor select only those fragments already considered aesthetically relevant. It does not sublimate their contemplation into a pure ideal of beauty — abstract, one might say — nor does it bend their depiction beneath an excessive burden of meaning.  A profound imitative impulse is at work, driven by tireless curiosity and a continually renewed sense of wonder. This impulse can be traced, among historical precedents, from Leonardo’s attitude toward nature to a certain empirical tradition of seventeenth-century Dutch still-life painting, in its attempt to understand its subject precisely as it unfolds through the act of making. On an aesthetic level, it operates like a clinical examination or a laboratory experiment, meanwhile never losing the quintessential sensory quality. Precisely: aesthetic. In this latter case, the act of representation becomes an empirical instrument for attentively grasping the isolated and selected subject, in the hope that, through its translation into image, the rules sustaining the immediacy of the first visual encounter may be disclosed. In this imaginative and linguistic translation, the scientist gives way to the artist.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Federico Seppi’s subject matter lies in nature, and more specifically, in a myriad of views and micro-studies of the glacial ecosystem. His primary poetic concern &lt;b&gt;resonates with the sense of wonder ignited by the encounter with the glacier — at times in its grandeur, at others in its poignant fragility&lt;/b&gt;, pursued through the most minute aspects of its constituent parts. The atmospheric sense of the landscape, which thickens the hazy perception of the water cycle’s constant becoming, gives way to a micro-analysis that dissects and brings into focus small extractions. They are true core samples, where vision itself is eclipsed by an infinitesimal contact with the ecosystem’s smallest units.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;If Seppi therefore works through imitation, his declination of the principle of ars imitatur naturam does not unfold as a mere presentation of natural elements as they appear, but rather through an attempt to instill his process with the temporal, dynamic, and metamorphic movement of the laws of growth and entropy belonging to his chosen subject. Since the glacier is a living entity, shaped by the seasonal rhythm of the water cycle (from snow to ice, from melting to evaporation, from dew to geological erosion) the concept of continuous transformation is inevitably the driving force and ideal tension of his research. The pendulum swings, in this regard, between a &lt;b&gt;representational mimesis&lt;/b&gt; that emerges, for example, in atmosphere (hic et nunc of the unrepeatable experience) or in abstraction (the identification of geometric forms and patterns, extracted and abstracted in themselves or in succession) and a &lt;b&gt;processual mimesis&lt;/b&gt;. On the one hand, the impetus is identified in what could be defined as natura naturata: the phenomenon as it appears at the moment but examined and magnified as though observed through the lenses of a microscope capable of making present, almost a subject in the proper sense of the term, the isolated element. On the other hand, a natura naturans, a metamorphic processualism which is activated by chemically or phenomenologically responsive matter, up to the limit-point of a loss of the very coordinates of the original referent.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;The second approach, as previously mentioned, is outlined in relation to two cases. In the first place, it is a processualism intrinsic to the pigmental materials used, due to the chemical reactivity of the metals laid upon two-dimensional surfaces. These landscapes present themselves as “living” entities, whose chromaticism, given by silver or copper leaf, shifts in response to the process of oxidation, at least until the artist decides to consolidate an outcome by fixing a shielding varnish: this possibility is sometimes consciously not pursued, and the work may continue its course. A second modality is linked to a phenomenological recirculation that views the work as a variable of a function that includes among its significant coordinates external elements, such as light conditions, the context of placement, and point of view. This is the case with the reflective surfaces — quadrangular segments scaled to the human body and at times architecturally self-supporting — which bring onto the vertical plane of the wall a shifting, sinuous segment of anchor ice (the anchor ice is a formation that solidifies beneath flowing water), or nivalis (a unicellular alga that gives high-altitude ice a specific pigmentation, causing the phenomenon known as “red snow”). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/column-unit&gt;&lt;/column-set&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
