Colorful glittery personages, wondermonsters from a land of nightmare and tale, are suspended between depht and lightness, happiness and melancholy, like a gesture frozen in an act of slap and caress, reversibly. Girls with eyes closed, crazy hybrid animals and smiling toothless personages expose their own inner side. They show flaming passion closed inside juicy strawberries, woundes on bleeding hearts whose blood generates new life, innocence holding knifes you can’t be sure they’re made of rubber. Can you recognize your own feelings into theirs? Protective creatures who try to tranform sorrow into rainbows, who follow a logic of feelings, and it’s so good to get lost in a fluo colors world, where recovering ourselves to smile about our instability, even without theet. And seduction it’s a funny game, in which rules are ruffled and subverted, and deep or morbid wishes are carnival masks for blinking creatures drinking reality to get drunk into our unconscious peeped, that nourish our happy daydream and wash away all that blood we walk on.
“Hacerme un vestido con mapas de los lugares que he visitado desde que me dejaste, perderme entre las calles, cenar con el camarero de nuestro restaurante, bailar por este pasillo que está tan frío, mezclar chocolate y leche para un batido, pegar saltos en la cama (mejor si es acompañada) y acostarme los domingos ya muy de madrugada.” Escuchar Nosötrash es una medicina que cura cualquier estado de ánimo alicaído. Sus canciones aparentemente infantiles convierten los problemas en alegrías. Y así son también las pinturas de Emanuela De Notariis. Ella es una niña mayor que pinta con un puñal de mil colores. Bajo el disfraz de pequeños monstruos se esconden remedios para todos los males, una terapia de colores. Porque reírse del malestar sienta tan bien como empezar el día con un buen chiste.
