stratification

the 40 years spent in typography have strongly influenced this work, where the plate is used as a support for photographs. the same plate used as a matrix for printing thousands of copies, today it becomes a unique work.

“i have always considered them the true masterpieces of the production chain: once mounted in the printing press, i saw them spinning and magically taking color like they were paintings. that's why, today, i want to see my photographs on that plate that will be unique".

the uniqueness created by the tear of the photograph, the décollage offers pieces of paper glued as if they were children who do not want to detach themselves from their own origins. flaps of paper that highlight a detail, confusing the perception

the tear, seen by the artist from the moment he clicks, becomes the detail which changes the image while preserving it and which makes that photograph unique.
