Last night I had the strangest dream

Last night I had the strangest dream

The photo belongs to the series "Last night I had the strangest dream",
which is a project about nocturnal visions. The picture wants to take the
viewer into a dreamlike, enigmatic and mysterious dimension which bounces
from literary, pictorial and cinematographic allusions. I take my
photographs in ambient light and in conditions of poor visibility to
emphasize the force of the visible things as well as the strength of the
darkness which surrounds them.
The characters living in those landscapes seem to stand against that
darkness, because of their reality and concreteness. Meanwhile they remind
us of how fragile and thin is the limit from which another and unknown world
breaks out. It is exactly from those ambivalences that the core of this
project is born. From one side what is visible that shows our perception of
reality. From the other side, imagination that is set free from any rational
influence and that can eventually drift away.

Digiuno di Hopper, apprezzo moltissimo quest'opera. Tre punti saldi, ancorchè con luce minima in uno di essi, sono capaci di suggestionare. Complimenti!

Superlativa. Ottimo lavoro.
Ho avuto la sensazione fosse davvero Hopper.
