Hidden Lights
Building on the success of his 2023 group exhibition Dreaming Awake at GR gallery, Pisanelli’s latest series emerges from both a narrative and compositional need to explore the dynamic interplay between nature and artifice.
Specifically, the artist’s focus is the formalization of works that contrast natural elements—such as water beds, trees, mountains, and waterfalls—with artificial elements, including minimal structures, shelters, and artificial lighting. This juxtaposition highlights the relationship between nature and human-made artifice, placing artificial objects in unexpected natural settings.
These compositions trigger a sense of alienation, both visually and intellectually, which is also reflected in the exhibition’s title, Hidden Lights. The title itself presents an oxymoron: light, typically associated with visibility and illumination, is described as hidden, creating a contrast central to the works. Through this layered effect of visibility and obscurity, Pisanelli achieves a carefully balanced pictorial composition of shapes, subjects, and content in relation to each other.
