JAKARTA POST | The Illumination of Filippo Sciascia

Italian artist Filippo Sciascia understands the meaning of light. Apart from being the source of life in the universe, it has also become his greatest muse. An exhibition of artwork, paintings and sculptures titled "Lux Lumina" now on display in Jakarta translates Sciascia's perceptions into physical form. "Lux Lumina means the light that shines. The idea of the exhibition is to put together different kinds of works. It's like an evolution of my work,"Sciascia said. Paintings of burning rope, the shadow of a standing man and kneeling woman in a circle of light are among the highlights of the exhibition.
