Streets, squares and buildings are common features of everyday life – fundamental elements that represent us, that show us for what we are. Nicolò Quirico constructs the essential constitutive parts of every metropolitan space as images devoid of self-referentiality, by capturing them through a gaze which grasps the vital flow that springs from them or is concealed within them. Life and memories mingle through streams of words surfacing from behind the pictures: voices and sounds, stories and thoughts, which through collages made from the pages of vintage books emerge out of the photographic prints. Books and the material they are made of are a crucial part of Quirico's work. They create a dense web of correspondences through their characters and layout, echoing the geometries of buildings – almost lending substance to their structure. These books are “disassembled” in order to be reassembled; through words, they are built like palaces, displaying iconic characters on sheets that always fold and overlap in a unique way, so as to create works that are never the same. The work is the 1 of a series of 5: photographic print on collage of old book pages, but in each work the collage changes, each work in the series is different from the others.

Nicolò Quirico has worked on visual communication and publishing since 1985, when he graduated at the Istituto Statale d’Arte in Monza. From 1996 to 2004 he worked on the Organization of the Morlotti-Imbersago Prize and began his artistic research, starting from the use of photography to create conceptual installations. He created refined matches between imagination and memory, between history and fantasy, as the travelling exhibition dedicated to the river Adda and the "Bestiario dell’ora blu", published in the "Il fotografo" magazine. In 2009 he won the second edition of the national Prize organized by the Fondazione Piero e Vittorio Alinari of Florence entitled "Fotografare il territorio".
