Body Scanner #2

Body Scanner #2

Digital Photography, Human figure, Mixed technique, 137x100x1cm
Body scanner is the device of imaging of the whole body, used for the safety in the airports of the globalization. Potentially the bodies scanners don't respect the privacy of the passengers because the images could be filed and riutilizzate in way "inopportune".
But Body scanner it is also the metaphor of the themes of investigation of this photographic project.
The differences (and the reciprocities) among expressive languages (color photographs and in black and white "hand-sewn" to overcome the partition between colours and black and white) they evoke so of the new runs of signs. The visual perception notices spaces, lines and forms that have proportions and different perspectives; here, the showy seams give only an appearance of likelihood, reporting, in reality, deep discrepancies. The sew ones is not photos but pieces of paper perforated by the needle anymore and crossed by the thread: she invites to go over the representation.
Parts of female bodies are sewings to parts of masculine bodies in the intent to sew the tears that divide and the communication they don't make possible.
