IDDU comes to London, leaving a lasting impression at Saatchi Gallery
We are delighted to present an artist's perspective of Iddu, the heart and soul of Stromboli in London. | Inspired by colours, power and authenticity.
Lia Aminov, an excellent impressionist, brought IDDU to the heart of London, Saatchi Gallery, Sloane Square. All just before the pandemic. A true delight and long-needed perspective, not to mention a lasting impression.
Impressionist textured oil painting exhibited Stromboli Island and its heart and soul – IDDU, the Volcano recently in London. Locals refer to the volcano as ‘Him’ as it is still understood in Sicilian dialect. Locals have an intimate relationship with IDDU rather. Namely, exceptionally loving, caring and trusting. IDDU is practically a member of their families. The connection is fascinating with such a powerful (and at times dangerous) creature. A relationship with the power of nature, some call it ‘the source’.
Have you had a chance to adventure yourself to experience something so extraordinary? I often find myself wondering about relationships humans develop with those that are wild at heart. It teaches well, mainly kindness and respect. Mostly we get the same in return, don’t we? How wild does your inner calling get?
If you ever get a chance, embrace it; it is such a surreal opportunity being a nearby roaring volcano. And, if you are brave and fit enough to climb for a few hours in the heat, the sunset over the ‘Centre of the World’ is a rather humbling experience. Complete ‘balancing act’ by default. It does touch every particle of your infinite being.
Lia is excellent with landscapes, and if oil painting is your ‘thing’, it’s worth visiting the artist’s page.
