This series was inspired to me by the fourth movement of the Dvorak’s New World Symphony.
We live in a technologically advanced but emotionally primitive world; a world in which living and feeling are so separate that, instead of helping each other, they often create an emotional gap in us that creates discomfort, fears, anxieties and sometimes problems in relationships with others. We saturate ourselves with things to show and we saturate our time with things to do, preferring the easy appearance and the “wow” philosophy.
We would need silence to give space to thought; do not escape loneliness but use it to get to know ourselves honestly; understand that being together with others is based on the need to share experiences rather than moments.
Gestation of this new dimension is a long and difficult journey that is still in the first, very delicate phases because the vast majority of us have not yet become aware of this prevailing necessity. The current state of this new world is comparable to a universe in formation, to a “primordial soup” in which life does not yet have full awareness of its existence.
My images want to represent this apparently antagonical concept of a life that is not aware of existing, but which demonstrates its worries, fears, anxieties, through disturbing glances towards the future and merged into a primordial landscape. Those looks perhaps represent the help request to fight and persevere with the same impetus and strength as the fourth movement of Dvorak’s Symphony from the New World .
About Giuseppe Satriani
Giuseppe is a curious of life with idealistic tendencies and a fighter, that tries to keep aligned what he lives with what he feels. Born in Italy but moved years ago to Bilbao, Giuseppe works as IT consultant. As a child he would have liked to paint, but his skills prevented him from doing so. When photography before and digital revolution after entered his life, Giuseppe finally found a way to channel his creative flow. Contact with masters: Franco Fontana, Larry Fink, Joan Fontcuberta, Pilar Pequeño, allowed him to put technique at the service of thought and intentionality. Generative AI has now arrived in Giuseppe artistic journey that quickly adopted it because it allows him, always at the service of intentionality, to exponentially expand the ability to materialize his mental visions in images.
