El poder de los Cielos

(The Ceilings' power)

Curator Mariagrazia Muscatello

"Even though it cannot be considered a distortion because of its aesthetic characteristics, in the series of photographs "Skies" there is a change of gaze that forces the public to question their acquired knowledge. Focusing her research only on architectural ceilings, heritage and historical buildings that the artist photographs from a zenithal perspective, reveal themselves under other coordinates and unveil their real and symbolic power. In this exercise of visual inversion, it is possible to appreciate another aspect of each place, which is at the same time present and hidden, and which remains somehow latent, in suspension". Mariagrazia Muscatello
