The Space Between Series 02
The Space Between Us
We live in a society where individuality is rewarded and selfishness is intrinsic in our daily behaviors. In my "Covid -19" isolation I found myself reflecting on our relationship with the public space and on how we relate in it. More specifically, I searched my archive and built this series not to document, but rather to represent what I think about it. So you can see people turning their backs while crossing the street or while sitting in a bar; people walking on two separate but converging paths; lonely people thinking about their things while others relate to other but above all people indifferent to everything that happens around. Can they really think of being self-sufficient?
This series that I have called "The space between us" will continue to grow and change and find its definitive face (or not ...) when I can return to the streets to photograph. But the research exercise in the personal archive is an absolutely legitimate way to discover relationships between images that we had previously overlooked.
