Il dipinto ad olio su tela (Spider Woman) nasce nel mito del leggendario legame insito tra il ragno e la donna in questo caso Aracne. Per chi non la conoscesse narrerò in breve la sua storia. Aracne era una fanciulla abilissima nella tessitura, tanto che tutti le dicevano che avesse avuto come maestra la dea Atena.
Tali dicerie infastidivano molto Aracne che esasperata decise di sfidare la dea Atena in una a gara di tessitura. La sfida fu raccolta dalla dea.
Nella sua tela Atena raffigurò l’Olimpo con tutte le sue divinità invece Aracne vi rappresentò alcune scene d’amore.
Le tele risultarono essere due capolavori, ove nessuno avrebbe saputo dire quale fosse migliore e perfino la dea non riusciva a scoprire il più lieve difetto nella tela della giovane Aracne.
A questo punto Atena, presa dall’ira, squarciò la tela e per tre volte percosse la fronte di Aracne. Successivamente condannò la superbia della fanciulla trasformandola in un ragno.
I 4 occhi nel dipinto, indicano le angoscianti fasi della trasformazione di Aracne in un altro essere ovvero il ragno, che risulta a sua volta ben visibile nel centro del dipinto.
I criptici riflessi negli occhi se opportunamente combinati a gruppi di 3 mostrano un messaggio di sos tramite il codice morse (· · · — — — · · ·) .
Ovvero una delle possibilità per creare il segnale di sos consiste nel tracciare un ipotetico triangolo rettangolo (simbolo significativo sia nell’arte che nell’esoterismo) che ha per primo vertice di partenza il riflesso dell’occhio in basso a sinistra, come secondo vertice il riflesso dell’occhio in alto a destra, ed infine come terzo vertice il riflesso dell’occhio in basso a destra.
Come si evince dal dipinto il primo passo per realizzare il segnale di sos è quello di partire sempre da uno dei due occhi situati in basso, ove è presente il morso del ragno che rappresenta appunto l’inizio dell’angosciante trasformazione di Aracne.
In merito al significato dell’ipotetico triangolo rettangolo è possibile affermare che derivando dalla divisione del triangolo equilatero, raffigura sia l’inizio della perdita di equilibrio e di armonia, come l’umanità.
In conclusione quest’opera è una mera composizione artistica senza tempo intrisa di arcani quanto criptici legami dal profumo onirico.

Hello everyone,
My name is Gian Roberto Tognetti, I am a multifaceted soul or first and foremost a painter, a poet and then a data scientist (Data Scientist, Environmental Statistician, Medical Statistician), independent in both thought and role.
I was born in the province of Rome in 1978, I graduated from 'Sapienza University of Rome' in "Statistics and Information Technologies" and then a master's degree in "Statistical and Decision Sciences", again at the same university.
In this regard, I can say that the union between art and science generates something mystical, an alchemy of the sense of the forgotten senses, the common root of parallel universes, silences in search of a taciturn noise, freedom in painting an apple in an apple.
The enlightening vocation and natural artistic predisposition in drawing and oil painting were my authentic masters, in my heartfelt surrealist journey undertaken independently or self-taught.
The oil painting evokes in me a cryptic dreamlike essence of a full moon, an ancient alchemy of the soul that perpetuates through the eyes of the stars.
Regarding pencil drawing, I can say that chiaroscuro is one of the artistic techniques I prefer to create those surreal noir atmospheres, steeped in a poetic romanticism of the past, a cosmic vision of being and never of appearing, darkness that illuminates the truth of boundless shadows.
I quote this poem of mine, as it describes me both as a person and as an artist, more than a thousand words:
Flight of an eagle in the silent abyss of sun and moon,
rainbow feathers in memory of every dream against the wind,
where I tried at the same time to live in dusk and dawn,
that alchemical time of stardust and rose petal crystals,
piano without keys to try the melody of the perpetual and mute soar,
towards those peaks forever unexplored by every reason.
