Photographer Mattia Mognetti - “Since 2010 I began to ride my congenital attraction for architectures: their huge volumes and gigantism, their shapes and textures… Fascinated by perspectives I was taking photographs without fully understanding what my attention was attracted by, what I tried to represent with a shot and his post-production. Photography as an opportunity to take a fragment of reality and make it a meaning, butalso, conversely, as an expedient to let a significance take possession of reality to bring out himself. The contrast between these two visions became the source of my own reflections. Slowly I realized that psychology was an integral part of my creative experience. That I wasn’t trying to represent architectures, but to use a photograph as way to strike and confuse my perceptive system. So I started producing the first works that were later structured in“Istigkeit”. ….
Artist WBK - A large part of my work makes reference and is influenced by the transition from analogue to digital. Using old type sets, type writer keys, analogue numbers, analogue timepieces (clock faces) etc. to represent the analogue era. The digital era suggested with computer keys, calculator buttons phone buttons, etc.
” The hand made days are gone. Our food, our clothes, our furniture, our homes, our lives are manufactured. Life is factory made.” WBK is factory made art for a manufactured world. With a quite reflection on an analogue past.
I like how Luis Toledo‘s “digital collages” intertwine as if he was mixing paint.
