LUX INFORMAE
LUX INFORMAE by LorenzoArs
Art exhibition – Official Event of the Year of Light 2015
and Official Event of the International Day of the Light 16 May 2023
curated by Laura Capuozzo and Franco Torriani
…light is pure energy, but when it merges with matter it becomes shape…
In this exhibition, that involves different techniques and media, but where Photography is the chosen tool, lorenzoArs presents a reflection and a production based, among others, on three elements: light, shape, material.
Complex balance between the desire to give shape to light and, as a declaration of intent, to bring out the shape through the use of light. Shape that emerges, according to the artist, from a mixture between the human species and nature, between the inside and the outside, between physicality and spirituality.
His analogical photographs and Polaroid prints, are both a presentation of the body and a reflection on the body and on the identity of the subject. A hybrid body that, as it appears in these artworks, or rather in their programmed sequence, is a hybrid of commissions ranging from culture, identity, techniques. A body that is neither completely natural nor wholly artificial (Bernard Andrieu, in Les avatars du corps).
Through the shape the body emerges from the dark (from the emptiness? Complex concept …) and the body itself embodies the shape ….
A research and application of photographic technique, that of Lorenzo, characterized by an experimental and productive relationship with the new media, as we call it, where the subject is placed gradually in a still image,
suspended into a process of experience and knowledge, of sense construction and perception of reality.
