Lito Carating’s artwork is a demonstration of precision. An abstract image is conjured by the vertical and diagonal lines or borders between color planes dividing the picture. It is of singular even colors without resorting to ethereal, minimalist austerity. In fact, the colors are rich and dense.
The permeation of the pictorial space by geometric planes used to define the sharply defined balance of glowing neutral colors, manifesting Carating’s efforts to convey a parallel visual world through the use of flat fields of color.
His painting Night Ritual follows the concept of a work of art in which the ‘content’ is subordinated to the overall strictly design dimension.
