Landscapes of soul
Luigi Ricci deals with the topic of landscape by employing all the graphic-expressive potential of photography.
A set of 20 black and white pictures, taken from 24x36 mm negatives, printed on paper or canvas (from 24x30 cm to 70x100 cm).
The prints are all made by the artist who checks every phase of the printing process.
Summer: clear days, strong wind, afternoon sun moving towards the horizon, lush vegetation, sense of amazement and dizziness.
The passage to the dream dimension is immediate and satisfying.
The eye is directed towards the sunbeams, though through abstract compositions of vegetation and snippets of landscapes.
Gestural graphisms, compositions carried on by the rhythms of black and white.
