The search for movement and the representation of light are particularly noticeable in Gilberto Piccinini's works. The line of the infinite, both at the bottom of the page and in its middle, is always expressed with precision, so that the optical vision is perfect. The brush stroke is strong and clean. Almost all works are monochrome: the colour is blue in all its shades from azure to cobalt to midnight blue. It's the colour of the infinite, of purity and the immaterial. Out of the real space dimension it conjures up a feeling of the boundless, almost favouring the mental and spiritual aspect of the artistic creation. It reminds us of the sea, the sky and of the most abstract sides of a visible and understandable nature.

In the seascape and skies, which are the main themes of the artist, one can find a clear, synthetic and metaphysical naturalism. The artistic power which comes from it is underlined by the pursuit of light and shade, the visual impact shifts to the perceptive area of moods whereas the representation of movement is given by rapid lines which cross and run after each other.
