New representation
Tina CosmaiWe are proud to announce that Tina Cosmai (Capua, 1964) is the latest addition to our roster of exceptional artist photographers.
An 'anomalous' artist in the panorama of contemporary Italian photography, Tina Cosmai has also attracted international attention for her light and at the same time profound images, similar to poems, created almost like paintings. The author blurs and brightens the tones through complex post-production work, making what is irrelevant to her visual message disappear and revealing what was not there, in front of her gaze, but stored in her memory, in her emotions. The result is works shrouded in a veil of tenderness that evoke deep feelings in the viewer.
This collaboration starts with the exhibition Mar d'essere | The Sea of Being, curated by Gigliola Foschi at Biffi Arte in Piacenza.
In the evocative space of the Sala Biffi three recent photographic series by Tina Cosmai are on show – Lùdica, Nostalgia del Corpo (Body Nostalgia) and Attraversare il Tempo (Crossimg Time) – united by a vision of the sea as an inner universe, reminiscence, poetry and a reflection on our relationship with nature. Based on the delicacy of the tones, where lightness is combined with a vein of melancholy, the works of Mar d'essere | The Sea of Being, as the title suggests, fuse the interior and the landscape in a suspended time, similar to that of an enchantment.
