‘My surfaces in canvas or plastic laminate or other materials, plastically dematerialised by the lack of colour in so far as this is an element of composition, tend to modulate themselves and accept the third dimension which makes them perceptible. By now light is an instrument of this perception: they’re abandoned there in contingent accidentality, form and intensity. Although they do not belong to the dominion of painting or sculpture, and take from architecture the character of monumentality or scale its dimension down, my spaces are the reflection of that total interior space, devoid of contradictions, to which we all tend. Therefore they exist as objects of instantaneous assimilation for the duration of an act of communication, before time shuts them up inside their mental precariousness’.
(Castellani, quoted in R . Wirz, F. Sardella, Enrico Castellani: Catalogo ragionato, Vol. I, Milan, 2012, p. 73).
