The stone is stationary, the water moves,
one is blank, the 'the other speaks.
uninterrupted listening to the dialogue.
Because even the stones speak,
also because the water is silent,
one o'clock moves slowly, the other
suddenly stops.
With my engraved signs
I make a single movement stopped.

CRITICAL
Barbagli "discover" the waterfall and the door in the streets of the country almost actual size. Reproduce the large sheets and the shattering roar of the water on the rocks.
The waterfall was the subject very dear to the Romantic painting in that it saw the example of the strength and power of nature: "Now the immense cliffs hung like a ruin on my head, now high and noisy waterfalls' water inundates me their thick fog. Now an eternal stream, beside a m'apriva abyss of not ardivan or eyes to fathom the immense depth " (Rousseau, La Nouvelle Heloise).
In the work of Nicholas Barbagli the force of nature becomes za for the sign and, like water marks the rock engraving Barbagli firm with strong mark on the very sound of the waterfall on the wood of the wood matrix.
The simplicity of the representation that recalls the elegant synthesis of eastern graphics, especially Japanese, is combined with classical monumentality of Western culture. The use of large format thanks to the chasing of the lines does not prevent these sheets to keep the character fresh sketch.
In the preparatory work is interesting that the introduction of color liquid penetrates between the grooves of the signs emphasizing the visual effect and sound dramatic burst of water: they are often painting the same way as musical scores: evocative sound of roaring water that falls from skimming and animating the sil Enzio roads.
