Prints from my solo exhibition entitled "MIO BLU"
French word for blue - azure, as well as Romanian azure and azurian, Italian azurra, Polish lazur and Spanish and Portuguese azul, etymologically come from the name lapis lazuli. Lapis is the Latin word for stone, and the lazuli comes from Arabic, meaning the heavens, the sky, and so blue. The lapis lazuli is a blue stone, the celestial stone and in human consciousness is always connected with ultramarine blue. This mystic blue as the night sky is sprinkled with stars due to the presence of anion, which, passing from the most molecular orbit to the lowest, leads to a strong absorption of light waves of a certain length. These absorbed waves are ultramarine dyes of lazuli. Divine blue is captured light energy of a certain wavelength. The heavenly heavens are present in the stone that their human eyes are admired and desiring to reach them and be worthy of them.
