Portrait : Tony Sciberras : part I

Abstract

The impression given by Tony Sciberras in his work is essentially a poetry of silence with a deep love for nature. A contemplative silence, a mood geared towards reflecting nature's animate and creative urge. This atmosphere of serenity, peace, quite is achieved mainly through diffused colours and delicate hues. A perpetual haze hangs over his valleys and way-side chapels; mist envelops his seas, fields and paths. An early morning and evening haze with mitigated half-light that echoes the land of the Lotus Eaters.
