"La Brama" Pieter Dedoncker | Limited ed. print 1 of 15
Project statement:
This project explores the relationship between intentional human activity and spontaneous natural processes, by zooming in on various walls throughout the city of Florence. The photos of this series show wallpaintings or wallscapes, formed by natural processes affecting artificial layers of paint. They are snapshots of a process in constant transformation, creating and destroying what the human eye could perceive as beauty. The emerging shades of colour and the organic lines formed by these natural processes, oppose the plain and structured way the paint has been applied.
These unintentional works of art are a pure representation of the beauty of blending, in continuous evolution, appearing and disappearing, bringing life to a dead surface.
The photos of Borghi Pinti are snapshots of these processes. They show wallpaintings that have not been created by an artist, but that have been formed by a unique balance between human activity and natural processes. Like the treasured Pietra Paesina, found in the hills surrounding Florence and popularized by the Medici in the 16th century, these wallscapes trigger our imagination. Whether reminding of a landscape, a memory or an emotion, the photographs of Borghi Pinti di Firenze intend to document little graphic stories, spontaneously written on stone and hiding in plain sight.
