ALESSANDRO PUCCIA
Alessandro Puccia is an Italian artist who transmits the language of water through photography. He was born in 1990 in Varese, where he currently lives. Since our bodies are mainly composed of water, his art intends to focus on the importance it has in each of us, drawing inspiration, through an intense personal experience, from the concepts linked to the memory of water and its ability to act as a link with the interior and spiritual world theorized in the early 2000s by the Japanese scholar Masaru Emoto. His shots represent drops of frozen water observed under a microscope, photographed and then enlarged to be able to observe and understand the deepest message. Since 2023 he has undertaken a personal research through shots capable of letting the beauty of nature express itself without conditioning and in the fullness of its shapes and colors whose original size is approximately 0.001 mm. The artist, who has been dedicated to research and photography on water for over ten years, only recently felt the need to share his works and their message with a wide audience by exhibiting them. His research intends to focus on the uniqueness of water, both humble and precious, and on the importance it plays in our body. He reminds us through his shots that water can communicate with anyone and, vice versa, anyone can use it as a means to get in touch with our body. Water remains an intellectual challenge that cannot be solved scientifically alone. It contains primordial, spiritual, scientific, ecological, imaginary and artistic meanings in its essence. To fully understand it, perhaps we should open our minds to a new vision of the Future. Water gives us life. We must respect it as a fundamental element for our survival and that of our planet.
