Brighton beach, 8th October 2010
New country means new colours. That's what I was strongly wondering before arriving: what would be happening to my black and white photography here. Of course it will not be the same and, in fact, my photos have began to look very different from my last ones. Receiving changing situations with open eyes, although difficult, means bringing new ideas to your life. And the more you experiment, the more you live. Changes mean challenges.
The only thing I want to remain in my photos is how they're read and interpreted. My own discourse, the codes I like to capture. Last July in Paris I discovered how much I can enjoy the living taste of a photo with bright but anonymous people, how much I like their movement, their expressions. I discovered how I feel taking photos this way and looking back at them later in different ways. I think there's a time for each way of enjoying a photo in different moments: when you take it, when you are looking back at it, and when you read it as a text (the idea of "reading" a photo). But I'm based on subjective facts. Let's see if they change too.
Last photos before Brighton:
Devo dire, che mi piacerebbe imparare bene l'inglese per poter scrivere in inglese che ho capito alla perfezione tutto ciò che hai scritto. Sono fiera di me.
ReplyDeleteAnche voglio dire che le tue fotografie sono per me più che immagini, sono pezzi di vita. Vita che adesso è a colori, e questo mi piace ancora di più.
Enorme piacere leggerti nell'anima in questi nuovi mondi. Non sai quanto, davvero, ho bisogno delle tue parole -ho tantissima vergogna d'avere dimenticato il mio italiano, scusi cara-. E se ti ricordi, i colori apparivano con te nella Piazza Maggiore di Madrid una sera d'agosto...
