The work first started as painted pieces, which were then merged and fused with photographic fragments, mostly of empty squares, where either minimal interference in the image or elements out of context reveal an error. A disturbance, a movement – sometimes almost invisible- contrasts with the unusual lack of human presence in these places, transfigured and metaphysical. The photos are mostly screenshots of webcam videos scattered around the world and collected by the artist randomly on the web in March-April 2020. These are countered by stolen shots of iconic places or bygone days.
