Romano Zanotti (1999)

"Carte secrète. oui il y a quelque chose"

dimension : 60 x 70 cm

Created in 1999, Secret Map. Yes There Is Something reflects Romano Zanotti's distinctive exploration of systems of representation, geometry, and imagined territories. This watercolor on paper features a circular composition structured by a regular grid of squares in warm shades of ochre, terracotta, sand, and brown. A dark cross organizes the space, evoking cartography, orientation, and the search for a central point.

Through its balance between geometric rigor and subtle chromatic variation, the work invites a contemplative reading in which form becomes language and color becomes memory. The enigmatic title opens a field of interpretation, suggesting the presence of a hidden meaning, an inner discovery, or a territory waiting to be explored.

Artist

Romano Zanotti develops an artistic practice in which references to cartography, symbolic structures, and spatial organization play a central role. His work combines the precision of geometric construction with a painterly sensitivity that encourages reflection and personal interpretation.

Decorative Appeal

With its striking circular form, refined graphic structure, and warm palette inspired by mineral and Mediterranean landscapes, this artwork brings elegance and visual harmony to any interior. It is particularly well suited to contemporary living spaces, professional offices, libraries, or reception areas, where it contributes rhythm, balance, and depth. Its timeless abstract language allows it to integrate seamlessly into both classic and modern environments while maintaining a strong visual presence.
