Incerta Condicio

My artistic research leads me to investigate the bonds and impediments that we impose on ourselves or others impose on us and hold us back. I investigate the stratifications which positive or negative experiences inevitably create, and  weigh us down,  modify us and trap us.

Those pictures are part of a photographic project calledIncerta Condicio, which means fragility in latin.

The flower  has just been picked up and merged in a solid substance that stiffens its nature, taking away life and color. In this way, I modified the structure of the flower capturing the cracks you will find on it. Despite of the fragments, you can still find a balance between matter and nature in its purest form.
