Ho perso troppo tempo

In a moment of disorientation, surrounded by lights and screens, perception becomes unstable. Shot with a JVC camcorder and then printed and scanned, the images reflect a mediated and fragile reality, suspended between urgency and loss.

“I Wasted Too Much Time” was developed during a solitary journey, in a moment of disorientation after the end of a personal path.
Without work or clear prospects, between euphoria and confusion, the gaze moves through a space saturated with lights, screens, and images.

The photographs are taken with a JVC Everio G Series camcorder, whose visual output produces a specific instability: blur, reflections, and loss of definition.
The images are then printed on A4 paper and scanned again, introducing an additional layer of degradation and distance from the original moment.

This process becomes part of the language: an accumulation of mediations that progressively detaches the image from direct experience.

Between energy and collapse, between the feeling of being able to do everything and the sense of being nothing, the images emerge quickly, almost in passing.

The work does not describe a place, but a mental condition, where each image becomes an attempt to hold onto something that continuously escapes.

“I Wasted Too Much Time” remains an open question, suspended between urgency and stillness.
