Description
In the photographic work “Summer Front” the author captures a fundamental contradiction between the meaning of the word “freedom” and the behavior associated with it. For the collective imaginary, “SUMMER” is a synonym of “FREEDOM”, liberation from standards and conventions is instead apparently denied by the common use of a mass-produced and widespread product, represented by seaside residences. The author’s gaze stops on the summer facades of the buildings on the seafront, reproducing the rigid geometries, the order and disorder typical of the Man who generated them. The strong colors of the facades are just an illusion under which the grayness of a globalized world is hidden.
