Gabriele Gentile
Deniers (Series)
DESCRIPTION
Being a woman is what distinguishes a woman, in every time and place.
In this photographic series entitled "Deniers" –a unit of measurement of the heaviness of the stocking– I wanted to represent my idea of the modern woman, a woman who is also fragmented and divided, but who even though she appears in these shots faceless nonetheless reveals her womanhood and her many faces, one for every moment of her everyday life, for every role that today's society entrusts her with, for every corner of her emotionality.
Today there are so many tasks and missions entrusted to women, but they always manages to adapt and amalgamate chameleonically with the space around them, shaping it and intoning it to themselves with their female strength, until they conquer it.
Shapes become geometry, color becomes material, harmony becomes beauty.
AUTHOR
Gabriele Gentile was born in 1986 in Parma. After studies in classical and humanistic fields, he approached digital photography fascinated by the possibility of fixing an instant by making it eternal. He thus develops his artistic research toward the concepts of time and space, investigated in every direction -interior and exterior, past, present and future- and projected into dreamlike visions through the intense and expressive use of colors in essential and pure compositions.
He has exhibited in shows and events in various italian cities and he has received international awards and publications. In 2022 his project "De-sidera" dedicated to abandoned places became a book entitled "Coloured dust", published in a bilingual Italian-English version.
