Light painting and photographic art on the borderline of painting Bright colors, intense moods: for many years I’ve been working extensively with instant photography, in addition to my reportage works and commercial commissions. The extraordinary color properties of the legendary Polaroid SX-70 film, whose production was definitively discontinued, inspired me to work on the borderline of painting. Instead of depicting reality, this research was directed at exploring the pictorial means and possibilities of photographic creation on the border to abstraction. The original photographs have been scanned and are presented without color modifications and saturating. The photographs, created over a period of ten years, are without exception unique. From the restriction to the simplest plant motifs, the work develops a pictorial language that is reminiscent of certain paintings by the Impressionists in terms of intensity and color power. Thus, in the small format of the almost square instant photograph, a somnambulistic, almost magical work on colours and their effects has emerged; a small, coherent series of intense painterly, almost abstract still lifes, of colourful meditations, as if from one cast: small luminous messages from the eternal flow of life, painting by means of photography. This photograph is part of a series Original fineArt archival pigment print, made by the artist on acid-free exhibition fiber paper, OBA-free. Limited edition of 3.

Publisher and author of fineArt photography books. Exhibition curator. Ausstellungsmacher. Looking for international gallery representation. "The work of P. Romano Riedo proves that photography retains its own domain (...). Every single image condenses an emotion, concentrates (...). It provides information and traces that last. It supports memory, it keeps time and light. Despite its accuracy, it causes dreams and evokes imagination. " Ch. H.
