of Light and Shadow | collective

The exhibition itinerary moves like a score, where each work is a variation on the theme and where the works on display build crossing spaces in which light is deposited on things as a memory of time.

An exhibition in which the tension between the known and the unknown dominates.
Associating light with the explicit, with what is offered to the gaze and understanding, finds its counterpoint in the shadow, a place of the unsaid, of the hidden, of allusion.

Light reassures, delimits, builds boundaries, shadow, on the contrary, opens up to what remains out of sight. Yet, it is precisely in this area of ​​uncertainty that the gaze is activated and the desire for knowledge is generated.
The works do not bridge the distance between these poles, but inhabit it, making it fertile.

Of light and shadow as a choral device, it shows us a light that is not neutral but full of narrative tensions, the spectator is called to imagine and the gaze finds space to rest.

Painting investigates light as a stratified matter, capable of making images emerge from the surface. Photography, direct daughter of luminous writing, works on the limit between visible and invisible, transforming shadow into memory. The sculpture brings into play the relationship between volume and void, ensuring that light not only illuminates, but models. Finally, textile art interweaves light and shadow through threads and makes an often impalpable dimension tangible.
