Tra Asia e America Latina
Siamo lieti di presentare una serie di scatti realizzati da Francesca Galliani nei primi anni 2000 , nel corso dei suoi viaggi in Asia ed in Messico. Vi sono intensi ritratti di bambini ed adulti che attraverso il loro sguardo sembrano renderci parte del loro mondo interiore. Altre foto come “L’abbraccio” e “Puto Vans” riprendono la composizione dei suoi lavori più noti, dove una parte dello sfondo ricrea una tela disegnata.
Le foto sono tutte analogiche con stampe manuali.
