From the Inversion series
the languishing winter nostalgia is here! This is what I experienced in this series. I tried to convey atmospheres of harmonious beauty, mystery and to incorporate the power of the grey colour palette to communicate the process of continuous evolution and timeless questioning. I have found Nuance very ambitious in terms of resources and creative scope: from a compositional viewpoint, I have highly appreciate the way this series establishes
such an atmosphere of memories, using just little reminders of human existence: how much do you explicitly think of a narrative for these images? By the way, I would like to ask you if in your opinion personal experience is an absolutely indespensable part of a creative process... Do you think that a creative process could be disconnected from direct experience?
