The concept of ‘Nonfinito’ first originated from the Italian Renaissance, it translates to ‘unfinished’ in English and it refers to the deliberate choice of the artist to leave a work of art unfinished, particularly in sculpture and painting.
Viewing from another perspective, Nonfinito points to infinity, of another kind. While we often feel intimidated when something is left ‘unresolved’ and ‘unfinished’, we also gained a certain level of security from being able to visualise the potentials, and anticipate for something more. Our imaginations are entertained with the ‘what ifs’.
The concept of Nonfinito can indeed resonate with the experience of unhealed trauma, unfulfilled relationships, or relationships that stop or are abandoned midway.
