Incerta Condicio
La mia ricerca artistica mi porta a indagare sui legami e sugli impedimenti che ci imponiamo o che ci impongono, e che ci frenano; sulle stratificazioni che le esperienze positive o negative inevitabilmente creano, appesantendoci, modificandoci, intrappolandoci.
Nella serie Incerta Condicio, che in latino significa fragilità, i fiori freschi vengono fotografati dopo essere stati immersi in una materia che si solidifica intrappolandoli, irrigidendoli togliendo loro vita e colore. Si creano crepe, frammenti, piccole parti materiche, costellazioni di polvere. Tracce.
This picture is part of a photographic project called “Incerta Condicio”, which means fragility in latin. The flower, a Calla, has just been picked up and merged in a solid substance that stiffens its nature, taking away life and color. In this way, the artist modified the structure of the flower capturing the cracks you will find on it. Despite of the fragments, you can still find a balance between matter and nature in its purest form.
