This photo brings to mind the paintings of Vera da Silva; it evokes those artists who worked on texture, on the canvas. Here light has become a texture, intertwined, “Intrecciata” as one would say in Italian. I can almost recognize the horizon. But as for this luminous vastness that the city of Naples has become, I believe you must have seen Naples on New Year's Eve to understand that there is an iconographic origin, a real origin in these images. Otherwise, we might think they are entirely invented, completely detached from any form of reality. It's astonishing that they actually come from a very specific reality. Napex 23322
