Mysterious and layered, the photographs in “Italia o Italia” blend reality and representation: bold shadows draw figures on marble and brick walls, soft colours and the presence of mysterious symbols characterise the images of lanes and squares, recalling the world of de Chirico’s paintings.
Shards of the present mixed with echoes from the past create an elusive elegy in which the reader is invited to decipher the components, losing himself in a suspended and fragmented world.
