This painting was based on “Without understanding anything of this mystery, I kissed this charming friend”, an engraving made by Noël Le Mire for “Julie ou la Nouvelle Héloïse” by Jean Jacques Rousseau. First drawn with the finger on the mobile screen and then copied to a larger format on canvas. The use of digital resources through painting questions the idea of forms of representation and the process gives value to the recovery of the gesture. In the composition, we can see three shapes participating in the encounter, while the beauty of nature advances upon the human tension. I see some carelessness portrayed in the images of the period and an interest in learning from the nature’s permanent state of creation. The painting only has the purpose of being made, in an attempt to make form and doing advance on thought, while a question underlies: How do we look at a painting and how do we look at a screen?
