selfportrait, Urbino
------------------------------------------------
the work of nicolas romanacci explores relations between the individual and universal structures, created through nature or men. challenge at hand is to create unique artworks, beyond unnecessary conceptual, trendy or other defaults. aim is to investigate a highly heterogeneous audio-visual space. these works are not ment to provide answers, rather trying to open up space for considerations on various realms.
-------------------------------------------------
as nicolas romanacci is also publishing as a researcher with a radical philosophical approach, having studied image science and media art histories, the artist's work might be also understood as a philosophical investigation with artistic instruments. to get a bit more concrete: one basic theme is the comparison of platonistic (claiming the existance of ideas) and nominalistic (focusing the individual) approaches to reality. as the artist (as a philosopher) prefers a nominalistic view (investigating views from ockham to goodman), the heterogenity of his work gets comprehensible in a radical sense.

Fine della preistoria//
Dietro i tetti scende il sole./
Apollo scioglie i suoi cavalli./
Nelle chiese pende Gesu./
I tempi sono maturati e vizzi./
Gli autori hanno scritto »fine«. Ma nulla finisce./
Ti ostini. Che cosa aspetti.

But, honestly, I prefer more unreal subjects, like your "Plant" or "Der Dritte"...
