A painting that springs directly from the instinct of creation within the artist's soul. The color is shaped, literally takes shape and acquires identity within the representative space: a chromatic dance sensitive to the sensation, the perception. The hand abandons itself and performs the gesture: the impulse to create, to give origin to something is too strong to be suppressed. Creative intuition takes over in Asato's soul and thoughts are transformed into matter overflowing with vitality and meaning. Color, rather than liquid pigment, is treated as solid material. The incrustations of matter thus take the upper hand in the composition, grabbing all the possible space to be able to tell all their visual expressiveness. And so it is that the stain, the smear, the incisive scratch of color is transformed into pulsating matter, into substance that does not disdain the element of chance and fortuitousness. Indentations and reliefs, depressions and roughness dictate the rhythm of a composition played on the game between motion and stillness, between exuberance and relaxation. The creative intuition takes shape in Asato's mind and, overcoming the pictorial archetypes, guides the hand in a rhythmic and excited gesture. The lump of material becomes the bearer of meaning in the exact instant in which it rests on the support. It is the artist's intuition that shapes the work, no one else.
