The technique used for the realization of the "Supernova" collection has also been applied to realize the "Dark Matter" collection. The artist exploits the effects of fluid-dynamics without touching the work with his hands, or with brushes, or with other instruments; every phase of the creation takes place at a distance. The multi-layer paper and aluminum panel lies submerged horizontally under a film of water. Operating from the center and employing the centrifugal force, jets of water and air move the pigments previously dropped by the artist on the support. This original technique is inspired by and attempts to reproduce, with all the limits of the case, the dynamics of the stellar explosion: the work thus created is very similar to the images captured through large telescopes. The “Dark Matter” collection contains a background of phosphorescent pigment that in the dark lights up, letting the emitted light filter through the darker colored spots of ordinary pigment and creating, at an optical level, a completely different, almost dual, new artwork.

This painting has been exhibited at CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research), Geneva and at GSSI (Gran Sasso Science Institute), L'Aquila in the frame of the exhibition "Enrico Magnani - Searching the Unknown", 2019.
