I was invited to show in a personal exhibition my photographic project on memory. The work was previously included in two collective shows, but for this occasion I had the chance to expand it -something that kept me quite busy this month.
This exhibition is part of a series called Racconti fogofrafici al femminile -women's point of view in photography and arts, presented this year by the cultural association Felsina Factory. It is still on as we speak until 2nd of December, at the Cafè de la Paix-Bologna.
I am the second lady of three exhibiting. Before me Stefania Polidoro exhibited and Cristina Lovadina will follow. I will share about their work on another dedicated post.
To remember is very important to me. For this reason I write a diary since I was a child. If it were not for my diaries and the fact I can read today facts of my past written with my handwriting, I would not even be sure some things had happened.
It's like my memories of the past fluctuate in water, soundless and colourless.
In this project I explored this feeling.
I felt touched when I realised that this work did trigger deep emotions in many people who saw it. By looking at my pictures they felt somehow "emphatically" connected with my life but also immediately went back to their own memories and got in touch with their own past, which is a strong feeling I think.
I'd like to thank again Felsina Factory for giving me the chance to exhibit my work in a solo exhibition, the photographer Simone Martinetto who coached this project from the beginning, MrT who is always supportive of my work, all the friends and people who came to visit the show.
