CRACKS, WHEN THE MATTER IS SHATTERED BY TIME (AND WEATHER): THE RAILWAY WARNING SIGN NEAR ROME #1

This image may look like a painting depicting a sky that has shattered under the blows of the global warming. Or it could also be the reproduction of a map seen from above during a flight around the globe. More simply, it is a close-up photo of the cracks on a warning sign at the… Read More CRACKS, WHEN THE MATTER IS SHATTERED BY TIME (AND WEATHER): THE RAILWAY WARNING SIGN NEAR ROME #1

12 PICTURES TO REPRESENT 12 MONTHS: RETROSPECTIVE ON 2024

Here in the gallery 12 photos randomly selected from those I posted along the year. They are all part of my “Lacer/actions” project concerning images of torn and decomposed publicity posters, deteriorated surfaces, natural cracks, scratches and corrosions that we find everywhere in our cities. They are all close-up or macro photographs and they aren’t… Read More 12 PICTURES TO REPRESENT 12 MONTHS: RETROSPECTIVE ON 2024

STORIES OF SEA WATER / PHOTOS OF CORROSIONS AND CRACKS ON A MOTORBOAT IN TAORMINA (SICILY, ITALY) #5

© Roberto Alborghetti Two years ago, along the coast of Taormina-Giardini Naxos (Sicily, Italy) I noticed two motorboats in bad conditions, as if they were waiting for a cure, a restoration. My eyes were immediately drawn to the colors on the sides and hull. After thousands of hours of navigation, the paint had corroded and… Read More STORIES OF SEA WATER / PHOTOS OF CORROSIONS AND CRACKS ON A MOTORBOAT IN TAORMINA (SICILY, ITALY) #5

CRACKS DO NOT DISTINGUISH COLORS… / PHOTOS OF A BIG ADVERTISING BILLBOARD IN SANTO SPIRITO (BARI, PUGLIA) #4

© Roberto Alborghetti What you see in this photo series are not collages built and created deliberately with my hands, joining and sticking piece by piece, but photos of real and random torn publicity posters I saw on an outdoor billboard in Santo Spirito, Bari (Apulia, Italy). They are the result of various and different changes… Read More CRACKS DO NOT DISTINGUISH COLORS… / PHOTOS OF A BIG ADVERTISING BILLBOARD IN SANTO SPIRITO (BARI, PUGLIA) #4

THE CRACKS FILES / JUST A CORRODED SURFACE ON AN IRON STOOL

It was just a cracked surface of an iron stool. The green paint was corroded in several places. A close-up photographic shot gave the image a different meaning. Is it a jungle seen from above? A glimpse of forest? A trampled lawn? It is certainly an image of Cracks. Cracks is part of my Lacer/actions Project which investigates… Read More THE CRACKS FILES / JUST A CORRODED SURFACE ON AN IRON STOOL

THE CRACKS FILES / IS IT A SHATTERED SKY DUE TO GLOBAL WARMING?

Cracks is part of my Lacer/actions Project which investigates and explores the incredible dimension of the decomposition of torn publicity posters on outside advertisings billboards. Since 2009 I entered the wonderful world of Cracks… We are surrounded by cracks. We live in a planet of cracks (yes, cracks are maybe another metaphor of Life, as well as the waste-paper…). All the Cracks pics are realistic, natural, random and… Read More THE CRACKS FILES / IS IT A SHATTERED SKY DUE TO GLOBAL WARMING?

SOME CRACKS AND DIFFERENT WAYS TO SHOW THEM

Cracks is part of my Lacer/actions Project, a multidisciplinary project and research about the apparent chaos of ripped and decomposed publicity posters, natural cracks, crevices, scratches and urban and industrial corrosions (I’ve collected so far more than 120.000 photos…). Transferred on canvases, reproduced on lithographic prints or textiles, re-built on collages or scanned in videoclips, the images of natural… Read More SOME CRACKS AND DIFFERENT WAYS TO SHOW THEM
