TITLE : STATICA
SERIES
AUTHOR : FRANCESCO SAMBATI
“Print Your Vision” was our latest Open Call to select a winning project and print it as a photobook.
We’re now showcasing the finalist projects on our website.
This is the series that Francesco Sambati has presented to the Open Call.
“In recent years, Southern Italy has found itself saddled with an image that has completely obscured its most authentic and bitter surface. Too often, its kitsch and noisy side is exposed, becoming overly artificial and forced. In this excerpt from my ongoing series “Statica” (available at www.francescosambati.com), I want to show what lies beneath this surface, the genuine immobility of the region, often still frozen in its undeniable immobility.”.
