MULTIPLO

Multiplo explores analog multiple exposure as intentional alignment. Each photograph is decided before it is seen. Guided chance replaces chaos. The negative becomes a space where time and perception coexist.

Analog multiple exposure as intentional alignment

Multiplo is an ongoing analog photography project developed since 2020 through in camera multiple exposures on film. No digital manipulation. The image is conceived and completed in the negative. The project does not treat multiple exposure as a visual effect, but as a deliberate act of alignment. Before each photograph there is a question: why? The technical gesture follows an intention. Without it, the overlap becomes noise. Working with film imposes slowness. Waiting becomes part of the structure. The impossibility of immediate verification transforms each exposure into a decision without rehearsal. Error is not excluded, but integrated as a conscious variable of the process. A good mistake is a foreseen one. Blind randomness produces confusion; guided chance generates form. Within MULTIPLO, different operational modes explore spatial and perceptual tensions.

FronteRetro: two opposing panoramas are exposed on the same frame by rotating 180 degrees around the photographer’s axis. The body becomes the invisible center between past and future.

Sottosopra: inverting the camera creates a doubled space where gravity is questioned but not denied. Orientation reveals itself as a mental construction.

Cardinali, Sfasatura, Incastro, Risonanza: exercises of compression, displacement and resonance where different directions, micro movements or compatible forms coexist within the same negative.

Multiplo does not celebrate disorientation for its own sake. It seeks meaningful correspondences. Not chaos, but tension; not accumulation, but structure.Multiple exposure becomes a language capable of compressing time, space and memory into a single irreversible gesture. Each image exists only once. It cannot be corrected. It can only be decided.
