    About the Book

    Edit

    Multilingual photographic catalog: Italian, English, Spanish. The catalog is a survey of the macro-theme of the Anthropocene, introducing some projects linked to the most pressing themes, including environmental issues such as drought, food, and resource distribution. In other words, it examines the impact of man on the environment and highlights its critical issues. To use the words of the curator: "Nature is not only represented: it is questioned, challenged, and at the same time celebrated in its strength and vulnerability." "Lucia di Nicolantonio's photographs offer themselves as an intense and poetic visual story, in which nature manifests itself through familiar subjects but made with plastic materials, a tangible symbol of the contamination and forced transformation of our environment. (...) The body of works suffocates the observer, immersing him in a reality where the destruction of the planet is palpable and looming. Plastic, a symbolic material of the contemporary era, here becomes the common thread that unites natural and artificial elements, inviting us to reflect on the broken relationship between humans and the environment. It is a visual warning that recalls the need to reconnect with nature, to respect its cycles, and to rethink our impact on the world that hosts us." Fabiola Manfredi. The shots that emerge from the surface of the paper, and are compared with poetry, with the verses of the poet Mirta Basilisco, meet criticism and scientific research, and finally are questioned with some contributions from Genevieve Vaughan (an American semiotician, peace activist, feminist, and philanthropist).

    Lucia di Nicolantonio
    Italia

    Nata e formatasi in Abruzzo, prima al liceo artistico e successivamente nella facoltà di Architettura di Pescara, risente delle esperienze locali, nelle contaminazioni tra spirito etnico e linguaggio contemporaneo, lo spazio antropizzato insieme all'ambiente naturale sono presenti nel lavoro sia fotografico che pittorico, nella continua ricerca del Genius loci . Esaltando la materia, espressa attraverso la rappresentazione della pietra, dei metalli, delle resine, dell'acqua, contaminano i supporti, dalla carta al metallo, dalla tela alle resine sintetiche, in cui la pittura o il disegno si trovano a dialogare, alle volte scontrandosi con elementi materici dissonanti quasi fossero sculture. Utilizza spesso le nuvole come citazioni di Aristofane, esse fanno "librare la mente e il pensiero verso l'alto, mescolandoli all'aria e facendo così grandi scoperte". Nell'edizione del 15° Premio Arte Laguna Prize ha ricevuto il premio Business for Art.
