Il nostro Dio delle brume, 2024 - in progress

The atmospheric and overtly romantic polyptychs from my most recent work-in-progress cycle entitled "Il nostro Dio delle brume" (Our God of the Mists) were taken the first in Sonogno in the Verzasca Valley and the second in a still deserted and devastated Bavona Valley in January 2025 with a small format Nikon F2 camera from the 1970s. They concretise my return to a work on film again and to an imaging linked above all to the classical tradition of photography that does not envisage effects in the darkroom first and then in digital post-production, a choice that is not only formal but also avowedly reactionary with respect to the kitsch tendencies of contemporary “artistic” photography (now fortunately largely overcome) and aimed at delegating solely to themes, subjects, their semantic meaning and aesthetic value the ultimate sense of their representation.
