'Spalletti utilise des formes simples et monochromes qui évoquent des moments de l'histoire de l'art qui lui ont servi de points de référence . Pour cet artiste, l'abstraction n'implique pas un renoncement à la tradition ou à ses origines, mais plutôt la possibilité d'approcher les idéaux d'ordre et de perfection à travers les composants de base de la peinture: la couleur, la forme pure, la lumière et la texture qui prennent corps par l'emploi de pigments en poudre.'
