Lotta perpetua

The photographic diptych titled “Lotta perpetua” by Nicola Bertoglio features two captivating photographs featuring the profile of a man in slightly different poses. The image of one photograph faces that of the other, thus establishing a visual dialogue between them. This arrangement reinforces the idea of ​​a shape that is created between the two photographs, uniting the different parts of the man's body. This visual connection invites the viewer to explore the overall composition of the work and appreciate the subtle details that are revealed when the photographs are placed side by side. The original shape of the subjects becomes less obvious when the two photographs are placed together, creating a distorted and intriguing perspective. This distortion adds an additional dimension to the work, encouraging the viewer to contemplate the different possible interpretations. The background of the work is a light beige, creating a subtle contrast that highlights the details of the men's profiles. This minimalist aesthetic is characteristic of Nicola Bertoglio's work, offering a clean and captivating atmosphere.
