Agalma is a word that harks back to the original meaning of a precious little gift: a little thing, in its customary use value, is invested with the sense of an elegant and rare choice, and is thus charged with those valences, affective and even intrusive, that gifts have. It is readable in this direction ALdiLà and it moves toward a twofold adventure, visual and symbolic. Here on earth, in our iridescent layers, in the constant oxymoron of joyful weeping, of shared loneliness, lies our beyond, made of desire in search of its golden objects that give meaning to life. The photos then show, as in a game of metamorphosis of the gaze, their symbolic reverse: having accepted the inescapable otherness of all that surrounds us, the embraces accomodate emotions that do not know.....and love.
