Due
2025

The verbo-photographic series Due (2025) portrays places on the Tyrrhenian coast of Calabria in Southern Italy characterized by the travels of matter and people between land and sea.

The diptych Due – Attraversare il mare (2025) depicts the interior of the Piedigrotta church, which is said to have been carved into the rock by a group of sailors as an ex voto offering after they survived a shipwreck. Due – Oltre (2025) showcases the lights of the industrial port of Gioia Tauro—today a hub for goods along the coastline—captured from Capo Vaticano, a place associated with mythical journeys.

Reworking visual notes gathered for the video Oltremare, the project Due employs double images and repetitions as echoes of a cinematic vision and of the doubling inherent in every displacement—evoking the point of departure and the point of arrival, what leaves and what remains. Annotated with a marker on glass, some words taken from conversations recorded by the artist capture fragments connected to the idea of movement.
