Pond

INFO

“Pond” is a visual poem in six scenes. Each image refers and complements the others, adding new nuances and sensations, thus exploring the possibilities and variations about the theme: the pond, the lilies, in a hot august day.

This series fully frame my contemplative/photography practice, the practice of aesthetic attention and  the aesthetic ecology (David Haskell). The main axes that make up my work currently.

Walk and be present in a state of deep connection with the environment, which gives way to a state of availability, that is, the cultivation of aesthetic attention in natural environments and specifically in city parks, lived as spaces of resistance to the economy of attention (Jenny Odell), and thus contribute, to reveal the beauty in common and everyday  places.



 "August of another summer,

and once again I am drinking the sun,

and the lilies again are spread across the water.

I know now what they want is to touch each other.”
