"THE SILVER THREAD
ROSSANO BERTOLO (DAGUERREIAN)
& IVAN CRICO (PAINTER).
The work "The silver
thread", wants to revisit, in contemporary key , the ancient custom of
coloring daguerreotypes with the pigments. No longer a mere embellishment, but
a dialogue between different languages, pictorial and photographic. The
Sutratma in the Tibetan tradition, the silver thread of life that connects the
self spiritual, to the physical body, also here a connection between two
different sides - and yet intimately connected - realities. For represent the
passage into another dimension, the painted image refers to an old photograph
taken with a Japanese "ama" diver, which is descending into the
depths of the sea linked to a thread, but in a reversed way, heading toward an
reversed abyss.
