VISIO TEMPORIS
Time as Inner Perception
Time takes hold of matter, modifying it and progressively altering its form. Yet time does not belong to matter: it passes through it and extends beyond it, dissolving into a dimension in which no certain points of reference remain.
Visio Temporis explores the relationship between time and matter through human presence. Faces emerge from layered, fragmented, and altered surfaces, while form progressively loses its stability. What appears no longer allows us to establish a precise point in time: past, present, and future seem to overlap within a dimension without clearly defined boundaries.
Matter thus becomes the place where time makes itself perceptible, but also the limit that time continually surpasses. The more form is altered, the further perception moves from the certainty of the visible, opening itself to what cannot be measured.
The eyes constitute the point of passage between these two dimensions. They look out from within matter, yet seem to turn beyond it, towards a space in which time can no longer be circumscribed. The gaze finds no definitive answer: it encounters infinity.
Photography does not seek to represent time as a succession of moments. It seeks to make perceptible its elusive nature, that continuous movement through which matter transforms while Existence moves beyond every form.
In this openness lies the hope of life. Time is not merely what alters and consumes matter, but what carries it beyond the present, towards a possibility we cannot yet know.
Visio Temporis thus approaches time not as a measure of Existence, but as the infinite dimension in which life continues to manifest itself beyond the limits of matter.
