19 de março a 14 de maio | Câmara Escura Inauguração a 19 de março, pelas 17 horas Exposição de Mariano Rennella [EN] Mist "It’s the reflection of a trip. Through the mist, fully awake, the search is activated. An ideal, utopian world is revealed. Illusion disguised as posibility? Longing for the barely glimpsed? A horizon irremediably unattainable? In this projected space lies the experience: a pure, perfect and sublime encounter." Mariano Rennella (1976, Buenos Aires). His work has been published in major Spanish newspapers such as El Mundo, El País or Abc and digital media publications like Lens Culture,Blur Magazine,Pilerats, among others. He collaborate with New York’s Omen magazine with the series Life around the burning ghat and Gogo Dancers. Mostly based in Spain, but a transient life devotee,in 2015 he settles Lisbon for an artistic residence at Carpe Diem art centre. His first work Gogo Dancers, shot in ibiza, is selected by the Pabellón 4 gallery as part of the Festival de la Luz held in Buenos Aires in 2004. In 2009 he exhibits his Red series in Madrid’s Rojo Máquina gallery, followed by his report on Muay thai boxing Banglamphu Gym in Bangkok’s Photo Gallery in 2011. Névoa (Mist) was exhibit in Madrid’s Casa de América and was part of Photoespaña 2015 in Carpe Diem Arte e Pesquisa in Lisbon. His work is part of the Collection Carpe Diem Edition Tour. Statement "Ever since I was a little kid I’ve been passionate about the idea of traveling, and my love of photography has a lot to do with it. It’s been with me 24/7 from the moment I embarked on this quest of the image and its ability to communicate, some twenty years ago. Above all, I value the experience, the act of shooting, it’s become a necessity. Photography is like a close encounter with the things I like best about me; it puts me in orbit, so to speak. My working process is based on intuition, with just basic planning (sometimes not even that). The concept is usually a direct result from experience. I’m a firm believer in the power of the image,as opposed to the overabundance of discourse. I was always interested in documenting my particular vision of reality, though as of late I’v been broadening my horizons to include that which is barely perceived, the realms of illusion and the sublime. Mist, one of my latest works, is a clear example of that new approach." Mariano Rennella horário | terça a sexta das 14 às 20 horas, sábado das 14 às 18 horas.
