In the second semester of my third year at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Rome, I took the mandatory Digital Photography course with Professor Lorenzo Casali. For the final project, we were asked to create a photographic book with just a handful of images. Upon learning about this, I was excited by the idea of creating such an interesting editorial project. Unfortunately, however, by Professor Casali’s choice, we were advised not to include any text and to let the photographs speak for themselves. This led to the birth of my new project, driven by my desire to reinterpret the brief and create a new editorial product. The OLTRE project was based on what is hidden behind the photo and its elements: a wall hides the foundations of a house, but the house itself hides what lies beyond it. The project is composed of images of imposing architectures set in both urban and natural contexts. As I took the photographs along the banks of the Tevere river in Rome, I was able to capture the duality of the metropolis. It was from this duality that I chose the dark green hue that accompanies the entire project. The green, in fact, covers the photographs like a halo, altering their original colors. This choice stems from the desire to make Oltre (oltre) a self-contained and independent work, even in terms of the product's purpose. This new version aims to emulate the style of a small exhibition catalog, created with a modest budget and the intent to explain every detail of each photo in the book. Therefore, the text in this version will carry equal, if not greater, weight than the photographic part.
