Descrizione Opera / Biografia
DIMENSIONS
The title ”Dimensions” refers to the different dimensions of existence.
According to the Multiverse Theory there is a plurality of parallel universes described as an infinite repetition of all the possible combinations of our universe.
In addition to universes very similar to the one we know, there would be an infinity of other universes completely different from ours.
Every time we make a choice in our reality, all other choices are made in the multiverse and therefore infinite versions of us would live all possible existences.
In addition to the dimensions of space-time, there is an inner dimension to each individual. In fact, each of us imagines being able to live other lives besides our own.
Each person contains a multiverse, different possibilities in different combinations.
To represent the perception of these different existences, I used the reflective surfaces as portals to other dimensions, a meeting point between the reality in which we live and other possible realities.
Other versions of ourselves, ideally represented by reflections, are joined in the same space by photography.
The choice of black and white is useful for creating a synthesis between the reflective surface and the dimension of the observer.
In this way, what is real and what is possible merge into the same image and coexist in the dimension of dreams.
IMMACOLATA GIORDANO
I am a non-professional photographer living in Italy.
I was born in Praia a Mare (Italy) in 1974 and I am a hospital pediatrician.
I approached photography about 15 years ago as a self-taught person but only recently did I start submitting my photographs for competitions and exhibitions.
I love experimenting with the creative use of light to express my way of seeing, dedicating myself in particular to street photography and the photography of details found in nature.
