High resolution scan of pigments and solvents. Limited edition on www.lucatombolini.net .

”In this series i wanted to play with Space, Time and our faulty perception of them. The series is made by Landscapes and Microscapes. The Landscapes are referring to an altered Time by the play of very long and multiple exposure, so creating an image that didn't exist within the realm of my perception. While the Microscapes are man made compositions of colour pigments and solvents on a plastic sheet, later scanned with a very high resolution drum scanner. With the help of it i went searching into those tiny composition for the same plays of colour and shapes i'm normally looking after in a landscape, hence investigating the repetitiveness of the same patterns from the very small to the very big.
.
In particular, landscapes are shot in Canary Islands, in different times between the sunset and the noon of the next day. Combining long and multiple exposures on film, especially on large format film, proved to be very difficult to master technically as any error at any stage would have wasted the film. In fact the whole series grew on this trials and errors and i had to say goodbye to many shots which i liked, either because of mispositioning of an element or because of miscalculation of the whole exposure. While all Microscapes were created during sessions of experiments with the "pigments and solvents" technique in my studio in Milan in late 2018. It took me almost one year of experiments to pin down few rules that granted a vaguely repetitive result out of the creative chaos generated by dropping colours into solvent agents laying on a plastic sheet. Finally, while watching the series growing, i had the feeling that looking with the scanner into that micro Space was like looking into the Cosmos with a powerful telescope; hence rhyming with the idea of patterns repetitiveness across creation”.

"Vistas is composed of multiple exposures shots on 4x5” negative film and Microscapes, high resolution scans of colours & solvents compositions, dealing respectively with our perception of Time and Space. Departing from my previous landscape works I aimed to create images that present an altered Time dimension, through the use of multiple and/or very long exposures. With these images, I wanted to suggest that the nature of what we feel as the flowing of Time is more likely to be a different entity which doesn’t share the same qualities that we naturally perceive, and of which we cannot get to understanding at the moment. Similarly, the high resolution scans reveal new landscapes that exist on a scale too minute for the naked eye to see. Yet I’ve tried to find in that micro space the same aesthetic qualities I normally search in a landscape” .
