Rossella Biscotti reinterprets the photographic records of the Archive of Pietro Pensa, who was a manager in a company in the earth moving industry, the mayor of Esino Lario and the chairman of the Valsassina Mountain Community in Lombardy. To do this, she selects fragments of landscapes and mountain views, but she shows them to us in a different light. The pictures, taken as part of a study of the landscape and its transformation, are accompanued by a soundtrack produced by sound artist Jacob Kirkegaard, who recorded the sound present inside the rocks. The stable and calm nature of the alpine scenery thus takes on an unknown facet that draws our attention and stimulates the formation of pictures in our imagination. The pictures turn fluid and go out of focus, demanding that we make a onstant effort to get them back into focus.
