Things that talk Program
BA Major Design Semester
2020/21 SS The workshop with photographer Luca Capuano made me explore the history of my family through an old orchard that now remains alone in my childhood memories. In this more photographic part of my research, I first tried to collect old photos of my father’s family, their garden, and their factory. The orchard was born because of the need to test the nets for agriculture produced in the family factory. In the photographic
work I decided to use these same nets to rethink the old photographs, to protect and cover them, just as the nets do, and to hide but at the same time make the observer curious.

Things that talk
The course aims to provide tools and method for the graphic design of the image for publishing through field research and the creation of prototypes. Design is mainly intended as narrative, as the ability to reconstruct a logical narrative structure starting from a reasoned combination of acquired elements. We are submerged by an immense quantity of images that are increasingly strident, disharmonious, screamed, multiform and disrespectful; they multiply daily, impose themselves everywhere and take possession of our lives, condition our choices. When there is too much to see, we end up seeing nothing and paradoxically to see better we need to close our eyes.
