Di stazza medio-grossa, i relitti giacciono arenati sulla battigia nei pressi di logori capannoni in legno che un tempo furono gli antichi cantieri navali.
Corrosi dalla fatica, dal tempo e dalla salsedine, gli scafi, oggi inutilizzabili mostrano costole, nervature, fasciame e ruggine, la marea, con il suo moto di flusso e riflusso, fa loro compagnia, bagnandoli ed asciugandoli costantemente.
Per riportarli in vita basta fare una corsa fino alla punta Penn Hir, distante un paio di chilometri e là, dove i faraglioni descrivono un semicerchio megalitico nel mare d'Iroise, immaginarli mentre solcano ancora a tutta forza quelle acque agitate, governati sapientemente dai propri equipaggi...

Francesco Cagnato is a contemporary Italian artist whose works are crafted using traditional materials such as chalk, charcoal, sanguine, ink, and oil-based mediums. Each completed piece bears a distinct appearance, yet they are all interconnected by a subtle logical thread, representing fragments of his unique and unrepeatable life experiences.
While Cagnato possesses a slight preference for landscape views over depictions of the human figure, he finds both themes equally captivating. Drawing inspiration from the places he has visited, he channels strong sensations into his paintings and drawings, experiencing them in a deeply personal and immersive manner.
Cagnato's journey into the world of painting began serendipitously many years ago and has since evolved with increasing vigor. It was through this artistic exploration that he discovered the profound connection between the fragments of his life and his creative output. Painting, once a casual pursuit, has transformed into an indispensable aspect of his existence, fulfilling a deep-seated need for self-expression and personal reflection.
