CHIESA NUOVA
The installation under the gable roof of the Chiesa Nuova stands out as one of the most rewarding professional experiences of my career. The extensive work required was challenging and fulfilling, and the outcome surpassed all expectations.
The sacred 16th-century site was transformed into a giant camera, where the pinhole served as the shutter, allowing a real-time projection of the city of Rome to flood into the space. The window essentially became an eye, capturing and preserving the city in a moment of memory.
Chiesa nuova
At the Church of Santa Maria in Vallicella (Chiesa Nuova) I created three unique negatives of the city of Rome, from three distinct views of the pediment that overlook the city in a cross shape. The three images together compose a panoramic view spanning 270 degrees, with a total size of 27 meters by 4.5 meters.
