ITA: Opera realizzata attraverso la tecnica dell’antotipia, questa composizione rivela quattro diverse sfumature di alghe, impresse su carta riciclata come tracce silenziose di un ecosistema fragile. I pigmenti, estratti da alghe oceaniche raccolte lungo le coste atlantiche, sono stati trasformati in una sostanza fotosensibile: un’emulsione viva che, esposta alla luce del sole e all’azione dell’acqua, ha fissato il colore autentico delle alghe sulla carta. Ogni tonalità — tenue, profonda, verdemare o brunita — racconta una presenza, un’origine, un tempo. In questo gesto, le alghe non sono solo rappresentate: sono parte dell’opera stessa, lasciando la loro figura e la loro essenza come impronta vegetale di luce.
ENG:Created using the anthotype technique, this piece reveals four distinct shades of algae, imprinted on recycled paper as silent traces of a fragile ecosystem. The pigments, extracted from oceanic algae gathered along the Atlantic coast, were transformed into a light-sensitive substance— a living emulsion that, through exposure to sunlight and water, fixed the true color of the algae onto the paper. Each hue — soft, deep, sea-green, or earthy — tells a story of presence, origin, and time. In this gesture, the algae are not merely represented; they become part of the work itself, leaving their form and essence as a vegetal imprint of light.
