It is a story about the sea, told through a collection of images that capture marine fossils and inanimate objects abandoned by the water. These photographs capture fragments of an ecosystem that, in its intricate peculiarity, narrates small natural evolutions. Each shot is an attempt to explore and highlight these peculiarities, inviting the observer to reflect on the transformations that the sea imposes on the elements it touches.
“Metemorphosis from the Abyss.”
The images do not merely document visible reality; they aspire to transcend the original context, striving to become evocative and conceptual. Each photograph is an exercise in decontextualization, where the depicted objects assume sometimes incoherent and abstract forms, challenging conventional perception.
These shots aim to capture the essence of the sea and its traces, proposing a vision that goes beyond physical representation. The abandoned objects, transformed by water and time, become symbols of an ever-changing evolutionary process, evoking a sense of nostalgia and wonder. The photographs manage to create a dialogue between the visible and the invisible, between the tangible and the abstract. It is an invitation to look beyond the surface, to discover the hidden beauty in small things, and to reflect on the fragility and transience of nature.
This collection represents a visual journey into the marine world, an ode to its complexity and its transformative power. Each image is a window into a microcosm of stories, an intertwining of past and present, of reality and imagination.
