Maurizio Salvati: 30" series

Head on Exhibition now @ Manly Library

Maurizio Salvati

Maurizio Salvati 30" series is inspired by the first photographic portraits of the 19th century, where the intense and serious look in the people's eyes was more the reflection of the physical effort to maintain the pose than their true character. 30" tries to recuperate this deep and extended moment between the sitter and the camera's lens. This prolonged stare transforms the lens' glass into a mirror where the photographic gaze is the subject's own.
