Poetic in its approach, this series follows a journey through central italy exploring contemporary and historical themes through obscured and abstracted imagery. The impenetrability depicts a lengthy journey, the end point of which suffers from an extraction and unidentified source. Chiaroscuro is again experimented here to veil the exact location and process that only leaves few clues. The photo series provides a style similar to a documentary revealing a spectrum of public and private lives that range from mundane activities of walking and sightseeing to glimpses of artistic and political legacies of Roman civilisation. The series forms a visual diary of a holiday of a somewhat naive viewer and documents social and cultural reflections of their memories in Italy. The images sometimes stray from a recording of one’s surroundings to a manifestation of emotional responses. The lighting enhances this and further suggests the stereotypical prescence of romance throughout Italy.
