Stefano Cerio
Nine large dimension photographs will be exhibited from the Night Ski series and will be accompanied by an audio installation.
At night, the only objects that inhabit the snow-covered slopes are electricity pylons and ski lifts. These huge metal structures seduce Cerio’s imagination. They tower over deserted, dark landscapes as if they were motionless, resting giants.
Just as his previous series of images of water parks and cruise ships, Cerio once again explores the unexplored. What we see in Cerio’s images is far from the usual perception we have of these places. The spaces are almost transformed, and become ghostlike apparitions, so suspended in time that they almost become metaphysical.
His photographs straddle the border between an imaginative vision, a real story and the unexplored horizon that awaits the viewer. The exhibition is accompanied a catalogue entitled Vice Versa edited by Contrasto, and written by Walter Guadagnini and Cristiana Perrella.
