Marina Lorusso, PIANO PIANO SULLA PIETRA (SLOWLY SLOWLY ON THE STONE)

The town is in the eye of the viewer at least as much as the inhabitant. Sending a photographer to look for “his/her” Edolo means expecting an unexpected portrait of those same villages, faces and streets. Marina Lorusso has not failed to live up to expectations and in this gallery of shots she has been able to participate in each place with the overbearing immediacy that has always characterised her investigative work. These are photos of great character, in which the author threw herself into an unsparing battle in search of the timeless truth of these stones. The result has been a gallery seemingly at the antipodes of the postcard, yet no less elegiac. These are images that sink into the ancestral truth of these houses and that, for this reason, do not fear time.
