Creatura
The project was made in black and white film and manually printed by enlarger.
The genesis of this work can be traced back to the author’s need to investigate the Other or, more precisely, the infinite multiplicity of otherness. It would seem an oxymoron talking about genesis in a project called crĕātūra and which, in fact, portrays, until proven otherwise, human beings. Humans yes! And as such, therefore, certainly generated. But Francesca Romana Guarnaschelli’s work investigates the choices that many of us make later. That is, the individual and conscious transformation that many (if not all) decide to operate in the course of their existence… And therefore, the new creature, no longer generated, but shaped to its exclusive liking, satisfying needs, passions, drives … In addition, the imperfect randomness of Mother Nature or the limits of the cages imposed by the dominant culture.
