ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Il contrasto è un componimento caratteristico della letteratura medievale, nel quale veniva svolta una disputa tra figure allegoriche e personificazioni di concetti astratti (per esempio: un angelo e il diavolo, l’anima e il corpo, l’inverno e l’estate, la rosa e la viola, e così via). Prendendo spunto da questo, ho creato la serie di immagini inserendo diversi dialoghi al loro interno, una serie di relazioni antagonistiche che si intrecciano alla ricerca di un’armonia che solo l’equilibrio degli opposti può generare. Il piano di lavoro: Contrasto tecnico: utilizzo software 3D per creare immagini fotografiche tradizionali, un mondo virtuale che appare come reale. Contrasto visivo: utilizzo del bianco e nero, a simboleggiare le ombre e le luci della nostra esistenza. Contrasto cubo / personaggi: i personaggi cercano di muoversi, gesticolano e si agitano ma sono bloccate nei parallelepipedi a indicare che non siamo mai del tutto liberi anche se lo crediamo. Contrasto dei personaggi: Uomo/Donna; Giovane/Anziano; Bianco/Nero; Bello/Brutto; Magro/Grasso; Vita/Morte. Da notare che l’ultima immagine, “pulsione di vita” e “pulsione di morte” alias Eros e Thanatos (Vita/Morte), lo scheletro è l’unico “personaggio” non bloccato nei cubi, a significare che solo la morte ci libererà dalle costrizioni della vita.

Marco Mattiuzzi's training began when he attended a creative photography course held by Fiorenzo Rosso and Serena Leale, who oriented him towards the "artistic" photo. With techniques such as solarization, toning, tinting and various manipulations, he obtains images between painting and photography. Later he deepens the language of images during annual courses of professional photography with Bruna Orlandi, Alessandra Attianese and Pier Angelo Cavanna. He has exhibited in art galleries in both solo and group exhibitions, ZOOM has published his portfolio and his work has been reviewed in newspapers and magazines. Fiorenzo Rosso wrote about him: "The reproduction of the negative is not the final stage of the process, but the beginning, or rather the continuation of a path that will end, for the author, only after a long work of manual intervention". He has collaborated with Photographie Magazine and Disegno e Pittura, as well as newspapers with critical reviews on painters and photographers. He deals with art and communication in many forms, from music to literature, from photography to virtual reality, with writings regularly published on online cultural portals and on major social networks. For some years now he has replaced the camera and darkroom with the computer, creating virtual sets in 3D from which he obtains images for further processing and manipulation.
