Artwork Description:
Cyanotype on canvas
Corrispondenze born the desire to relate images retrieved through old family films to VHS and the natural element. These, selected and isolated, appear as redundant traces of a particular place, the harsh Sardinian lands, in an intimate view of the elements of those natural landscapes in which I grew up. It’s a project linked to my childhood and to the concept of memory, belonging, identity, bonding, fragmentation and time. By reflecting on my origins, I manipulate this personal archive and develop transfigured images, which represent a part of my life experience that becomes visible and can be read as a kind of self-portrait. This archive is to be understood both as a place where one can activate the present through memory and as a place where one can reflect on the role played by images, in particular photographic pictures.
