ROOMS - The feminine beauty between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries (Series)
DESCRIPTION
What remains of the ancient rooms is represented in the paintings that, in addition to showing the living environment of the time, reveal interior scenes and portraits of the people who lived there.
My gaze has dwelt upon the privacy of the domestic walls on ‘interior landscapes’, in particular, my choice has fallen on paintings which represent the multiplicity of female beauty, embodied by women of different ages, build, sensuality, beauty.
In this project consisting of 39 portraits, I wanted to show an outline of women; a proud beauty, characterized by superb looks, sometimes poignant but also melancholic, had to be shown through my photos. ‘My women’ play the gesture and the attitude of the body in the painting, accepting the visionary game of the painter and the photographer together.
The artistic period I went through began in the nineteenth century and involved the first half of the twentieth century. The decision to focus attention exclusively on women, comes from the conviction they have represented and still represent the muse of creative imagination.
So the project aims to be a tribute to the painters of the time, to the female universe and its representation.
